There are dating books (like, ‘don’t fart during dinner and nor should you date peeps whom bore you to hell and back as it gives you premature mortality’) and then there are books like this one WHICH I HAVE NOT READ YET and yet I wanted to…I LOVED The sound of it…
It is all about how there are Satyrs and Mermaids etc, all the – i am gathering – sub-deities of the pantheistic world…And how they relate! LOVING the idea….The contact links on her site do NOT WORK -infuriating and i have tried them in several different browsers, because how cool would it have been to interview her about this book, brilliant idea and the link to mythology, modern life etc? So…what…?
One cannot even SEND a vague query through to the agent as they are so nymph-like..the link does not work! Screw it! SO INSULTING when you are trying to contact an author for interview etc and the links are not even ACTIVE!
Can anyone who has read this interesting sounding book or managed to make the “contact” works on the site work please tell me? OR is the idea that we boring, usual peeps are not supposed to be able to access info re nymphs etc?? SO ANNOYING.

that title sounds like my love life
i WANT THIS BOOK! lol.
-
So do i ! But come ON -do not fail me on the campaign!
-
In the workshop section she mentions you can contact her via her facebook page…a tad convoluted a path…but there are ways…
-
Thank you but i TRIED that, obviously, and it did not work…But if you can get the link/contact etc page to work, please send an address as the book is SO revolutionary and fab – the marketing so weird! xxx
-
I’m one of the few people on the planet who doesn’t currently have a facebook account…or else I’d try to go there for you…figured the link wouldn’t work for me without an account…maybe there is some other arcane way.
-
Mystic you sound like the archytype
“Impatient Sybil seeks answers”
-
-
Mystic, I saw the contact page, but it does not contain any mailing address, etc only names.
This is what it says,
Literary agent:
Lydia Wills
Paradigm
New YorkFilm and TV agent:
Lucy Stille
Paradigm
Los Angeles -
MY POINT! Thank u, exactly…is odd, like she does not want ANYONE enquiring about her or her book?
-
Francesca Lia Block is amazing. Have you read any of her other stuff? Dangerous Angels seriously helped me survive high school (& definitely helped shape me into the person I am today). But yes you can contact her through Myspace, though I don’t know how often she responds. I asked her for an interview once & she never replied. Boo.
-
I think you might be able to reach her via her MySpace account – that seems to be the contact info she uses for her workshops.
I hope you do get to interview her. I love her books & have a soft spot for the author herself, although I’ve never met her – she seems to reveal so much in her work.
Anyone else read her essay in “Damage Control: Women on the Therapists, Beauticians, and Trainers Who Navigate Their Bodies” ? Powerful stuff.-
oops, sorry Gala, didn’t see that you’d already suggested the MySpace approach. (I’m surprised she didn’t get back to you – your website actually reminds me a lot of her characters.
)-
This is one of the most charming comments ever, haha, thank you, I am truly flattered!

MM she has a facebook fan page and a personal page where you will be able to send a message (myspace is so 2007
:Fanpage

Read about your quandary, so I went searching. Here is a website that she is interviewing a girlfriend. Good luck in contacting her. She sounds like a hoot!
Love your site ..Janine Gallioli
-
hmmm, I posted her facebook deets but they’ve disappeared.
Anyhoo, she has a fanpage and personal page on facebook.
-
Yes Mystic this does seem to be a case of anti-marketing.
The agents email was easier to find.
-
Well if you find her i would be interested to read an interview! I think dating mythological beasts makes perfect sense of my love life…thank u for posting about this book Mystic.
-
This is TOO annoying, I e-mailed the agent and the e-mail bounced back saying “relaying denied”
I don’t do facebook but if one of u who do can please attempt to ask her to email me re an interview, it would be fab!-
i can certainly do that for you Mystic.
-
Done. I’ve posted a message on her wall and also proved a link to your post above. Hope she responds – Good luck!
-
-
-
wow – i must get this book!
sounds cool
im guessing wood nymphs and centaurs is code for – Virgos & Saggo’s ? -
I found her and have done a fab interview with her which i will post real soon!
-
CANT WAIT!
HAVE ALREADY ORDERED IT FROM AMAZON! -
whoooo! imagine doing this old style – would’ve taken MONTHS! Gosh I love the internet.
-
Awesome! Cannot wait.
-
-
Got to her website; pretty in pink; she’s beautiful and “love obsessed” they write. Then got to the
book on Amazon. Think I’ll order it. Hope you’ve gotten to it by now. I just googled her by name. -
I ordered this book a few weeks ago, and I’m waiting (very un-patiently) for it to arrive! I adore the Dangerous Angels trilogy and I know that this will not let me down.
-
I’ve ordered it too! had to wait a week or so but am fascinated by the concept and even though married, cant wait to find out what I am lol my daughter will hopefully dig it too!
