'Not Chick Lit' Anthology Party Location Speaks Louder Than Title
Elizabeth Merrick's This Is Not Chick Lit anthology has been kicking up bloggy controversy since the deal was first announced on Publisher's Marketplace. Then Merrick fanned the flames with an outspoken defense of her decision to marginalize an entire ill-defined genre of female writers, who she accused of writing about nothing but "more feet! more purses! more stilettos!" So you'd think she and the ladies who her subtitle deems "America's best women writers" would be a little bit more choosy about where they'd plan to host an event celebrating the "golden literary moment" that "serious women writers" are having right now.
Yeah, you'd think. Invite after the jump.
