Hey, authors: you'll need to super-size that manuscript. Because word count really counts if you want to get traditionally published.

American publishers want your submission to be at least 60,000 words. Or 70,000, even 80,000... Read more of this blog post »

Mickey liked TashNz's review of What I Did for Love: "The author's trademark humour and approach is evident in Mickey J. Corrigan's latest offering. The author is never afraid to approach plots that surely are unbelievable in real life but for sure will be happening somewhere out there! That's what ma..." Read more of this review »

Mickey liked Vina's review of What I Did for Love: "‘What I Did for Love’ by Mickey J. Corrigan is an unusual book. It’s about a lady teacher, seductress, cougar. The book is engrossing, and yet disturbing. It took me a while to accept the idea of a woman interested only in boys. Grown men were nev..." Read more of this review »

Mickey and 8 other people liked Imogen's review of The Alcoholic: "I love that when you type 'alcoholic' in the search box, two Bukowsi books that don't have the word 'alcoholic' in their titles come up before anything else.

Beautiful, creative, brilliant, with science as poetry, as story, written to share a warning: save the trees, save the planet, save ourselves. A work of essential genius.

Mickey’s Quotes

“I may look like a beer salesman, but I'm a poet.”

“I am gripped by an existential panic.”

“A true war story is never moral. It does not instruct, nor encourage virtue, nor suggest models of proper human behavior, nor restrain men from doing the things men have always done. If a story seems moral, do not believe it. If at the end of a war story you feel uplifted, or if you feel that some small bit of rectitude has been salvaged from the larger waste, then you have been made the victim of a very old and terrible lie. There is no rectitude whatsoever. There is no virtue. As a first rule of thumb, therefore, you can tell a true war story by its absolute and uncompromising allegiance to obscenity and evil.”
― Tim O'Brien, The Things They Carried
