Bleaker House: Chasing My Novel to the End of the World by Nell Stevens

Did not finish book.
I really wanted to like this book. A memoir about an aspiring novelist, a unique setting, the cute penguin on the cover, and come on - the book was called Bleaker House! So good. But it just didn't work for me. The small sections of fiction interspersed throughout made it seem like this "memoir" was an excuse to publish some unpublished (and/or unfinished) writing. I put the book down about halfway through.
