Recommended Posts

Please join us at 8:30 P.M. (EST) on December 27th, 2014 (0130 December 28th (GMT)in #readers_corner, for a discussion the ethical issues involved in the use of "ghost writers" in literature.

 

We will be talking about the implications of the use of dead writers names by authors using the famous name to promote sales of their works, as well as the use by famous people of ghost writers to pen the autobiographies of those famous people.

 

A general outline of the topics for discussion can be found in the forum entry:  http://www.koach.com/forum/index.php?/topic/7926-possible-discussion-topic-feedback-requested/

 

Meeting Place:

 

Webchat: http://koach.com/cha...=readers_corner 

 

mIRC Users: /server -m chat3.koach.com:6667 -j #readers_corner

 

You won't have to prepare for the chat, no homework required.  I hope we can just discuss our personal feeling about the issues involved, and maybe make some comments about works we have read that have used ghost writers.

 

It will be a good opportunity for good friends to sit around a warm monitor and have a glass of mulled wine or hot lemonade together,  Hope to see you for our last Readers' Corner chat of the year.

 

In the meanwhile, have a happy Hannuka, merry Christmas, and the best of New Years.
