Submarine gets great reviews

The film of Submarine - the novel by Joe Dunthorne that started life here on ABCtales - is getting rave reviews. If you haven't read the book, then do! And if you go and see the film then please leave a review here on the forums.

It just goes to show how ABCtales can help you develop as a writer. Joe was a student at UEA when he started on here and he still posts from time to time as 'spack'. Find his work here:

I just hope we all have the same success.

That's amazing, I saw just a glimpse of Richard Ayoade talking about the film, might go and see it now :)

Wowsers, in his little red trousers, that's a great film. It's inspiring me to write a short story about tortoise brand pot cleaner, that's how good it is. Must get book now.

 

How fantastic. Will get the book today.
