about me

I'm relatively new to this business,this is my second book and while my agent is pushing my first I thought I'd test the water to see what sort of response I get on Authonomy.
I started as a Musician, (music was my first love) and got pretty good at writing songs with no real success. So because I was getting increasingly frustrated with the music industry I turned my sights to writing, aged forty.
My first book got instantly picked up by a literary agent, which within the space of one year was more positive than anything I had ever achieved in music. So with new found confidence I wrote "Demo"

Demo

David Hill

Demo is the story of a frustrated musician trying to crack the music business one last time by putting together a new demo tape.


If you had the chance to relive your youth would you do it? I think we all would, but would it be as much fun second time around? I think most of us can probably afford to buy the toys we never got as kids. A Chopper Bike, an Evil Knievel Stunt Bike, a Doll's House, Stock Car Smash up or perhaps a Stretch Armstrong, the list is endless, but aren't we just a little bit too old to really enjoy them, has that time past us by?
Nahh, It's Stretch Armstrong? Are you kidding!!
Demo is the story of a forty something musician who has one last crack at the music industry by putting together a brand new demo tape, twenty five years after his original band first put together their demo.
While telling the story of the new demo and the frustations of trying to persuade his original band members to share in his enthusiam for his latest musical venture, it also documents the original bands limited success with amusing, but very fond memories.
So will the new Demo ever get off the ground????

Sounds like someone got out of the wrong side of the bed this morning??? Thanks for your comments It sounds like I may have been the "antagonist" when commenting on your "opus".

Although It is well written I couldn't help but find it a bit corny "The Cuban" is very non descript and a bit stereotypical really, admittedly I didn't read enough to get into the plot, but I did come away think I had heard it all before.....Sorry just trying to be honest and It is only my opinio... view book
