Possibly I don't want to be a writer after all. Apparently there are pitfalls. Sadly, I find myself tempted to actually buy the book under discussion. Fortunately, there's no purchase information provided.

Wow. This is a whole bunch of hilarious.

Me: Your book is printed on very white, shiny paper.

Burrows: They did a nice job.

Now why don't I get to call people up and tell them that they suck?

That about sent me into tears. :-(

You need to pitch this idea to your editor.

Seriously.

Your writing isn't that bad.

Burrows' wrote the literary version of Plan 9 from Outer Space. Hell, I can write more convincing dialogue in my sleep and I'm not even a retired English professor.

Copying other people's ideas is Not Nice, journalistically speaking.

Which isn't to say it's Not Profitable either.

Or Not Fun. But still, I can hardly say "What a great idea! We should steal it!"

I don't see why not. Shame is overrated.

Originality isn't.

Re:

Feh. Originality.

Fox manages just fine without it.

Yeah, but does anyone RESPECT Fox? There's a difference between makin' bank and making a name for yourself, and I'd prefer the latter. Granted, my bank account shows that, but hey, I don't need all that much material crap out of life. I make enough for food and rent, and I get my books and DVDs free.
