William Kostakis

Bio: William Kostakis' debut novel for young adults, Loathing Lola, was released when he was 19. In the year since, it has sold close to ten copies, including the seven he bought himself. He's calling it a runaway success. His publisher isn't available for comment. In 2005, he won Sydney Morning Herald Young Writer of the Year. Now that he's the author of a chart-middling, moderate non-bestselling YA smash, William's taken to blogging to fuel his over-inflated sense of self-importance. He talks about upcoming appearances, the writing process, and dishes the dirt on the authors he knows you just hate.
