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

I read the "About" on his blog, and he apparently is trying to eliminate sleep from his schedule. Good luck with that.

It's like reading someone on a cocaine binge.

ETA: Jessica, I haven't unpacked the rage yet at comparing himself to a slave.

Next up! S&S...SS? YES. MY 22K ADVANCE BEING LATE IS JUST LIKE WAITING IN LINE TO BE PUT INTO THE OVENS !@!#$#

Because books.

I had to laugh at the six weeks. You think that's long? Stick around, bud.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Well, as we always say - hookers and blow!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Oh, so WROD. (Wow, I haven't used that one in a while.)

Yeah, I'll wait "like a bitch" for 22K. 6.5 whole weeks! Why, I've waited 52 WEEKS for that.

Whiner.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Years ago I read a book in which the main character is a writer. She writes "serious" pieces but writes series romances to pay the bills. In one scene she looks through her mail and finds a check for a piece in a serious magazine; it took her a long time to research and write it and then make revisions. The check is for a fairly small amount and took something like six months for them to send it. Another envelope has a check for a good deal more for a romance. It was one written very much to formula and she cranked it out in a short while and the publisher sent it fairly soon after she submitted the manuscript.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

He sounds like this guy: >[link]

Good god, that post uses hock as a verb twice. It's blistering my eyeballs.

My sister bought me this out of nowhere. I didn't even know she knew thinkgeek was a thing. So I'm wearing it today along with these and feeling quite cross-pollinatedly geeky.

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

Another envelope has a check for a good deal more for a romance. It was one written very much to formula and she cranked it out in a short while and the publisher sent it fairly soon after she submitted the manuscript.

I think I should be aspiring to do this. Writing serious fiction is HARD.
