Praise from the Miller Award Committee

With trembling voice, we proclaim Prose and Cons the most significant tome of the decade. Penned by a previously unknown writer, Chuck Katz is staking his claim as the finest novelist of the modern era. Almost as amazing as the novel is the miraculous tale of how the book came to our attention. The manuscript was found, by a fiction-loving can collector, in the trash outside his Brooklyn tenement.

The literary masterpiece had been fed through the shredder by the unstable mercurial author, in an impulsive act, and left on the street for sanitation men to transport to the dump. From a tiny hole in the garbage bag, with rodent teeth marks around the edge, a single line stuck out like a fuze waiting to be lit. One line which would change the landscape of literature for eternity.

A veritable blueprint for finding your muse, mastering the art of writing fiction, and acquiring a shiny MacBook Air for free.
