Lauren Conrad is an Anxious Author

yeah go lauren!!!

LAME! oh im sure her “books” are going to be great …right up there with hemingway and faulkner!…ugh

This is the stupidest thing I’ve heard in a long, long, time.

LC, please go away now.

I bet they’re going to be $50 for one book. Super overpriced, like the rest of her stuff.

WORST idea ever for a book. This girl needs to get over herself.

Bítch will probably get a ghost writer.

Okay, I’m going to save you all $33.00.

Here is the book right now - exclusive release:

Hi, my name is Lauren, no wait, it’s LC, you know who I am. I used to have a friend named Heidi, who turned into Speidi, so we aren’t friends anymore, because she said I had b-curtains. No wait, my first love StePHen, second love Jason, and third love Broday, said I had b-curtains. Yet I continue to hang out with all of them anyway except Speidi. You know, how it is in LA, love everyone and trust no one.

The END

Who would want to read her books when we know what its all about???

This is an insult to genuine writers who are talented, but face the glut of competition for a competent agent and editor. There are PLENTY of superbly written young adult novels in your libraries and bookstores. Don’t support amateur celebrity wannabes.

Right VICTORIA…Even stupidier as I say………Right, STAR 7 NuMBER # 19………….WHY ????….you won’t find me standing in line at my local book store for THAT silliness…..She just needs to do what she does…Her show…Why is it that celebrities HAVE to do BRANCH OUT, and ”’ do perfumes, books, jewerly, artwork,clothes, shoes, baby stuff, make-up and hair……..Like we don’t have enough of those things floating around.

I can’t wait to read it. I bet she has some interesting stories to tell after all she has been through. As for the haters……..I feel sorry for how jealous you are. It must suck to be you and hate someone you don’t even know.

My first thought was “really?”….then i snapped back into reality. A three book deal for someone who has no proven writing ability is not about how well they can or cannot write - those that mentioned ghost writers are probably on the right track [(most 'celebrity' authors have one, they are usually labelled -editor- on the book) .... though everyone, including me who writes for a living has an editor, the better the editor, the better the book - though an editor cannot get blood out of stone unless they are, you guessed it, a ghost writer!].

This kind of publicity on the signing of a book deal is not about the quality of the product, nor even attracting readers, it is about tapping into an established market. In many ways Lauren Conrad, whose house the tourguide in LA made a point of showing us (that was before i had even heard of LC), has been incredibly smart. She obviously has a head for selling her skills. For that she has to be congratulated. Whether society and the arts are dimished by her contribution to it is up to her - but i am not sure the publishers mind - they are really only interested in whether a book sells, the quality is (when it comes to celebrity authors) a secondary consideration.
