dbo:abstract Atlanta Nights is a collaborative novel created in 2004 by a group of science fiction and fantasy authors, with the express purpose of producing an unpublishably bad piece of work, so as to test whether publishing firm PublishAmerica would still accept it. It was accepted; after the hoax was revealed, the publisher withdrew its offer. The primary purpose of the exercise was to test PublishAmerica's claims to be a "traditional publisher" that would only accept high-quality manuscripts. Critics had long claimed that PublishAmerica is actually a vanity press that paid no special attention to the sales potential of the books they published, since most of their revenue came from the authors rather than book buyers. PublishAmerica had previously made some derogatory public remarks about science fiction and fantasy writers, because many of their critics came from those communities; those derogatory remarks influenced the decision to make such a public test of PublishAmerica's claims.

(de) Atlanta Nights (in italiano Le notti di Atlanta) è un romanzo del 2004 scritto in collaborazione da un gruppo di scrittori di fantascienza e di fantasy statunitensi, con lo scopo dichiarato di produrre un'opera di qualità pessima, per verificare se la casa editrice a pagamento PublishAmerica, divenuta in seguito , l'avrebbe accettata lo stesso: venne infatti accettata, ma, dopo che lo scherzo venne rivelato, l'editore ritirò l'offerta. L'obiettivo principale dell'iniziativa era mettere alla prova l'affermazione della PublishAmerica di essere una "casa editrice tradizionale" che accetta solo manoscritti di alta qualità. I suoi critici invece da tempo sostenevano che PublishAmerica fosse in effetti una casa editrice a pagamento (in inglese vanity press), che non prestava particolare attenzione alle possibilità di vendere i libri pubblicati, poiché la maggior parte dei guadagni veniva dagli autori, piuttosto che dai lettori. La PublishAmerica, inoltre, aveva fatto delle osservazioni altamente denigratorie sugli autori di fantascienza e di fantasy, poiché molti dei suoi critici appartenevano infatti a quei gruppi; tali giudizi influenzarono la decisione di mettere alla prova pubblicamente in quel modo originale le dichiarazioni della PublishAmerica.
