SPRT 013 Weekly News Discussion

I make enough money writing to cover my bar tab too. (I drink like once a year)

Sending a new hangout out

Worst. Rendition. Of. Eye. Of. The. Tiger. Ever. :P

@Eric Guindon Burgess Meredith just rolled over in his grave.

Let us know if you want in for an afterparty invite.

BOOM

A F T E R P A R T Y !!!!!

@csjameson would if I could... Sunday.

@csjameson Who wants an invite?

@jlward @csjameson Me!

@jlward @csjameson Me

@jlward @csjameson Me, for a bit, then I need to get back on copy edits.

@jlward @csjameson Can't tonight. I have writing to do.

Hey! Damn it....yes....you got me. I wear it while doing both. I remove the gloves first, though. 

EYE OF THE TIGER!

@csjameson Rising up to the challenge of our rivals...

@thedavidwwright Me too! I get in the heads of the characters like that.

Dave's whole life is a weird habit.

Dave, don't you have a basement?

They definitely should have cut the live feed like five minutes ago... cause I'm sure Dave will regret telling this story. In like... 15 minutes.

@Nicholas Kahler Dave regrets nothing.

@crissymoss @Nicholas Kahler He will the next time I'm outside his window...

I chew on my hair and index finger (so much it's bruised). I also collect journals to spark my inspiration. I have to listen to music.

@csjameson I almost always have music on while writing. 

@csjameson And I'm also wearing my Darth Vader costume the entire time. 

@csjameson @BuddyGott Sounds hot. 

@BuddyGott @csjameson Well that's not usually the response I get when I'm in clown. LMAO!

@csjameson @BuddyGott Buddy is attracted to anyone wearing makeup. The more the better.

@BuddyGott @csjameson I should dress in clown to write. See what that does to me.

@Nicholas Kahler @csjameson @BuddyGott Interesting....::runs to put on more mascara::

@Nicholas Kahler @csjameson @BuddyGott Yes. Well, not always. Tammy Faye Baker did nothing for me.

After party?

@csjameson Are pants required?

@BuddyGott @csjameson Not for you, Buddy.

@Nicholas Kahler @BuddyGott @csjameson Phew!

@BuddyGott @csjameson I don't know...but I've already broken that rule then.

Crissy's right that a one time sales spike will never hold rank for long, Amazon weights a slow steady growth and a higher price tag stronger than a sharp one time spike and low price tag, so you may get a spike for a day but  you'll rank and sales fast.

That should be you'll lose rank and sales fast.

tech difficulties?

@David Anson Always. =)

@Nicholas Kahler @David Anson winky smiley

You can also make money writing books about how to write a book.

@maryeihla So true!

@maryeihla Or start a religion.

@sryeager @maryeihla or both of those things.

@sryeager @maryeihla Don't you dare say a word about Kahlerism!

@sryeager @maryeihla It was determined that I might be a goddess today....so...I should totally start a religion. 

@Nicholas Kahler @sryeager @maryeihla OH! Kahlerism is an interesting religion. You have to live a dual life.

@csjameson @Nicholas Kahler @sryeager @maryeihla ... which means, I only need half of your life savings to get started. =D

@Nicholas Kahler @csjameson @sryeager @maryeihla I thought we already determined where I spent all my coins! 

@csjameson @Nicholas Kahler @sryeager @maryeihla You're a goddess, where are the offerings from your worshippers?

@Nicholas Kahler @csjameson @sryeager @maryeihla Well, my goddess is an invisible pink unicorn....so.....nobody really believes in me yet. I take cookies.

@csjameson @Nicholas Kahler @sryeager @maryeihla There's some kind of coded message in that comment... isn't there?

@Nicholas Kahler @csjameson @sryeager @maryeihla ::whistles::

@csjameson @Nicholas Kahler @sryeager @maryeihla Well let me just say... I'm a believer. ;)

@Nicholas Kahler @csjameson @sryeager @maryeihla Cookies?

@csjameson @Nicholas Kahler @sryeager @maryeihla I like Pink Unicorns, but also like Nyarlathotep too.

@sryeager @csjameson @Nicholas Kahler @maryeihla Aren't those creepy crawly octopus thingies?

@csjameson @sryeager @Nicholas Kahler @maryeihla Gold star... had to inject Lovecraft in this conversation somehow.

@sryeager @csjameson @Nicholas Kahler @maryeihla Well let me lose that star and say I haven't read Lovecraft, but I've heard the term and know through word of nerdom. 

@csjameson @sryeager @Nicholas Kahler @maryeihla Silver star then. :P

@sryeager @csjameson @Nicholas Kahler @maryeihla I'll TAKE IT!
