I have a lot of confidence in your ability to promote Sam if you go the Lulu route, Allyson.
I don't know what I'm doing this weekend. I mostly feel like sleeping and watching TV, so that's probably what I'll do.
Oh, paying bills, it's time to pay bills again.
I think we are going to out to dinner tonight, so that'll be fun. We've been unsuccessfully trying to go out to dinner for what seems like months, so I hope we can pull this off and finally get my super secret go to a restaurant once a week plan underway.
Maybe Alice in Wonderland at some point.
This weekend, I'm running a 10K and we're taking the kids to Mall of America so DH can shop for some work clothes while we swim.
I will be going to a bunch of benefits for the bars.
Perkins, I wouldn't vote against that.
I got a discount on my meal because of the delay. Tipped on the full amount because I'm only mildly pissed at the server. She should have apologised before I complained.
Got beefed up TiVo back. Home now!
Maybe I can sell a thousand copies.
If you can sell a thousand self-published you'll probably make more money than if you got a publisher.

Average sales for most self-published novels is generally less than a couple hundred copies sold. However, Allyson has a definite advantage because she is higher profile than most who go the self-pub route and is very internet-savvy. And if she does do very well (edging up into the 5K range) it might get a traditional publisher to pick her up.

Has that happened? Cool! Sort of like record companies signing artists they find on YouTube.

IIRC, that's how Eragon got published.
You're right, Jess. Neat!
