i suspect Castle would have FANTASTIC public indignation
Didn't he say he has half a million followers on Twitter?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

That part might not be fiction. [link]
Okay, so they're stretching the number a bit.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
In re Castle: I remember once hearing an author (Stephen King perhaps) in an interview say that the best thing to happen was have a studio pay for an option on a book, renew it over and over, but never make the movie.

Oh hah, I got one of the Castle books for Christmas but I haven't gotten around to it yet. Maybe this weekend.
(No surprise this is the show to namecheck meta.)

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Neil Gaiman has said the same. Lots of money, nothing happens.

The Castle books are kind of like a longish episode. They're quick and fun.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
With Castle, I got the impression that yes, he's as successful as a James Patterson and could get input, should he so desire, but that he's just arrogant enough (in that charming Castle way) to not feel as if he needed it because who would change his words?
Haven't seen the episode yet, but I've known a couple authors who've waived away input on film adaptations, because they couldn't be bothered. And I can imagine any agent who represents Castle saying, "You know what? Pay us a little more, and we can keep him out of it, all together. Really. Do you want him calling you at all hours with script ideas? It won't end. Trust me. I know."

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Ha! I think you nailed it, victor.

this is a public service.
tonight's CSI features Carrot Top. I received no warning. Friends don't let friends see Carrot Top without warning.
