I suggest VanderMeer’s Inferno next, in which our author awakes to find himself in a dark wood. When he meets ancient poet Vivian Darkbloom he’s led on a long journey into the heart of literary Hell.

The After (Book)Life maybe? About how you can prepare for readers to rediscover your work years after you’ve snuffed it and can’t do anything about being misread or misappropriated.

That’s it. I’m chucking my computer out the window and never posting on another blog, ever again. Oh, in due time, the void I leave behind will instill great remorse in the denizens of the blogging community and great waves of shock throughout the publishing industry. “If Bill would only give us another chance,” they will lament bitterly. “We can never forgive ourselves for not embracing his vision!”
But it will be too late.
