Fifteen minutes of Tim's time is worth $103.50.
It's gone up. Tim's time is now worth $30.73 a minute. By the time this auction ends, we might not be able to afford even waving at him.
Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Jesus. He just sent me an email to cheer me up for getting an avalanche of rejections from publishers.
I think I now owe him $249.53.
Shit. Where am I gonna get that kind of cash?

Maybe you can use the FF ad to establish a line of Tim Credit?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Allyson, have I told you lately that you are my hero for sending out your book? Rejections or no, you have inspired me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I say we count those as his investments in the board.
Maybe we should charge people to read them?

Aw, Burrell. I heart my agent. I'm waiting for word from 2 more publishers and then I guess the second round starts. It still doesn't keep me from being horribly depressed about it all.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs
cheer me up for getting an avalanche of rejections from publishers.
This boggles the mind. Can they not read? Silly publishers. Of course, the one that "discovers" you will be brilliant and lucky beyond all reason. Then Tim will wonder if he can afford you.
Perhaps that last line was a bit much? I was completely sincere until that point.

"Don' be e-scared"
So far, no plans for "The Inside" DVDs, alas. Which I think sucks ass. At least Marti got "Point Pleasant" out there. Good for her, I say.
Just got a call from William Mapother who just saw his ep -- the house-bound serial killer. He thanked me for giving him such a "fun" and odd character to play. He's really good in it. It's nice to get the real gratitude. Sigh.
On an up note, as a few here know, I finally finished my draft of "The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress," and the response has been exceedingly strong. What's more, I kinda think I knocked it out of the park. To the moon, Alice. (Remember when wife beating was funny? that's for another thread.) So that's good. If that gets made, for SURE there'll be a DVD. I have, I think, less than a year on my current deal with 20th. Maybe I should not extend it and go do movies.
