The Kardashian sisters, whose sole claim to fame is that they are famous, can now claim novel-writing as another of their accomplishments. Dollhouse will be coming out in November under the Harpercollins William Morrow imprint. In an unrelated story, the big six publishers have agreed to stop ridiculing writers who choose to self-publish or to use indie publishers. Clearly, the big six subscribe to the Samuel Johnson dictum: “No man but a blockhead ever wrote, except for money.” I feel like such a blockhead. Then again, if Samuel Johnson could have imagined that a life of letters might include the likes of Kim, Kourtney & Khloe, he might have moderated his pronouncement or at least added an exception or two.
