When WILL We Have A Machine That Can Predict Bestsellers?

WORDS Posted: January 19, 2014 1:00 pm

“This kind of book, Archer wrote, is ‘not favorable toward sex, lust and passion, bodies described, marital relationships or remote natural settings. It also doesn’t like emotional expression. What it does like are middlebrow thematics. Education, law, travel, money, cities, technology, childhood relationships, history and dining out’ are all wise subjects to cover ‘if you’re penning a future bestseller.'”
