Kilmer-Purcell Lets MySpace Pick His Next Title

By Neal 

Shortly after Josh Kilmer-Purcell turned in his second book to Harper Perennial, he discovered that the novel was known in-house both as Candy Everybody Wants and Candy Everyone Wants. He and his editor couldn’t decide which one it should be, so Kilmer-Purcell is letting his fans decide, holding an open vote on his MySpace blog that runs through the end of September. Voters will be asked to explain their choices, and the three who come up with the best rationale will be thanked in the acknowledgments; in addition, one of them will also receive an advance reading copy of the novel sometime in early 2008.
