Anyone famous?

[dididothat]

I've been wondering if there are any well known real authors on here, like proper published real books old school writers, drinking absinth and shit kind of writer.

I doubt they'd come forward but I was wondering.

Of course I wonder if any famous people are on here, that would be cool to know some A lister is reading my work, not you Kath Griffen!

Hate to break this to you dude, but hey, those people here with millions of readers ARE famous, and not only that they are CURRENT.

 

[Zeb_Carter]

There is no one here with millions of readers. There are authors here who have millions of views, but that doesn't mean there are millions of readers. A view is a click on the link in the stories list. Every time the link is clicked the counter increases. If I had the time I could bump all my stories to a million views, but I have better things to do with my life.

There are a few authors here who are legends in their own minds, but that's about it.

A few people have alluded to that fact they might be somebody that would be a household... or maybe bookstore name, if it was found out who they really were. I don't pry in to anybodies life and you're right; nobody is gonna admit to being Danielle Steele or R. L. Stien, or Mat Damon, or somebody.

TxRad is secretly Nicholas Cage
Oogbashan is Sean Connery
KeithD is secretly Howard Stern
I am secretly Mace.

No,no, I'm David Goldbloom. Get your facts straight.

<—- Secretly being me, no one else.

Now, according to the quote in “Young Guns, “I’ll make you famous” - that usually means dead. Those that are alive are well known celebrities, but I get what you’re saying.

I think maybe Jonathan Franzen wrote that one about the vampire doing his ghost daughter.

 

[SamScribble]

No,no, I'm David Goldbloom. Get your facts straight.

And here was me thinking that your were Jeff Goldblum. That's the problem with these noisy parties.

 

[KeithD]

I bantered about with Sara Gruen (Water for Elephants) on a writing site for a couple of years, but that was before she got a best-seller. Nora Roberts shows up on Web sites from time to time. She once posted on a writing site that eXcessica, a publishing house that came out of this Web site, wouldn't last, but it has lasted for nearly a decade so far, which isn't bad for erotica.

Some here do publish in mainstream but that doesn't make them/us famous.

Yeah, I know, we all look alike.

No mom, I'm not Jewish but I've played with one or two female ones. Left bank, right bank, canal down the middle.

 

[HeyAll]

I've wondered too.

Lit has about 33 millions unique viewers a month.

Lots of famous people have talked about watching porn. Who knows, I'm sure plenty have found their way to Lit.

Do I look like Sean Connery?

[Bramblethorn]

I've drunk absinthe. Still not famous though.

[BentonVirtus]

I'm wrapped in so many levels of nom de plumes that I had to check my passport. Having done so, I can assure you that I am nobody.

 

[KeithD]

I am several people--even in passport terms.

 

[jehoram]

Yes, I'm a famous writer, with dozens of books, many of which have hit the best-seller lists and have been translated into many, many other languages. I don't make public appearances because I'm constantly mistaken for Josh Brolin. This is my only way of communicating with people who don't turn into gooey sycophants when they realize who I am.

And on the internet, everybody is like me.

Seriously, I've written a few technical manuals, but not the sort that bear author's names. I've also published articles in tech magazines under my own name, but these aren't the sort of publications in wide circulation, and people rarely take note of the authors, anyway.

You be you. I’ll stay a fan.

 

[Oblimo]

I’m the ghost of Norman Mailer.

Fuck you all for not liking Ancient Evenings.

I’m the ghost of Norman Mailer.

Well fuck us for not knowing!!!

 

[SimonDoom]

I'm Spartacus.

 

[TxRad]

Some say there is a fine line between famous and infamous.

According to some of the comments I've seen and heard about, that line may be wider than originally thought.

 

[Jada59]

I have some published works elsewhere, but I'm not famous.

 

[where_is_RUTH]

I'm Dan Brown. I wrote the Da Vinci Code.

Actually if you read my posts, most of them make sense and even have punctuation (often in the right place) so clearly I'm lying.

Fifteen minutes is up. That's me done.
