Hey, I recently started a website called Literation . It's for book and movie reviews, but there's a secret: all the books and movies are fake--but don't tell!

I've tested it out on some people and most everyone I show it to thinks it's totally real, so, the plan is working. However, I'm looking for more people who might like to submit reviews. I figured this community is full of talented writers, plus we're all Gaiman fans, so I thought people here might be interested in this sort of thing.

So yeah, if you want to write a review for the site, just click the link in the site. The only requirements are that the book has to be fake, and that the review has to sound like it could be real.

Also if you'd like, critique what I have up there already--I've only just started it so I'm trying to find the shape and direction of it. Thanks!

Sorry about that--I've actually been reading this forum for quite a while but never registered until now. I apologize--I genuinely thought people would be interested.

I absolutely love this idea. So, this is how I'm going to spend my Saturday night: writing reviews of fake movies.

Maybe I just haven't had enough coffee yet, but I don't get it. Why tantalise people with yummy sounding books or reviews of non-existent things?

I remember long ago when I first got into Terry Pratchett - the books said other books by this author - and I could never find them. It was very frustrating to know something existed, but not be able to have/read it. And those were real.

So... I just don't get it.
