Now that your book is #1 on NY Times best seller list . . .

The National Enquirer has dug up your stories on Lit, how do you feel:

1. Distraught and embarrassed - "That wasn't me, I was set up!"
2. Only slightly embarrassed - "I did it for practice writing, it's where I cut my teeth."
3. Just laugh it off - "Hey, it got me laid."
4. Proud - "All my writings are damn near Shakespearean!"
5. Don't Care - "Who cares."

Sure, I try to use a word with more that two syllables and look what happens!

First #2, then #4, and finally #5. What can I say--I'm complex.

Ah, yes, but you more than make up for it with your remarkably tasteful AVs.

Thanks for giving him the antiphrasiacal nudge, Maths. I'm nominating you for AV Police.

Definitely a little embarrassed, though only at the quality of the writing, followed by pride at how far i'd progressed.

Not to mention gratitude at having this place to get started at. If i were to ever find myself in that position, chances are you'd find the name Laurel in the acknowledgements.

I'm amazed! They want to publish me? Allright!!! But, hey - they better pay me for it!

 

[KillerMuffin]

I'll have to take #4, Alex. My smut will become a collection of short stories for sale in fine bookstores everywhere when I'm a #1 Bestselling author.

I'm seriously optimistic.

2, 3, and then 5.

I'd feel proud. There's nothing wrong with Lit or the stories here. If ever I was published I'd feel proud of anything I've written.

After all, "A. N. Roquelaure" wrote the Sleeping Beauty books, but Anne Rice is famous! I have a very beautiful box set that says "Anne Rice" in large letters against a gold background, and each individual book lists "Anne Rice" in larger letters than, and before, "A. N. Roquelaure".

Um, who says I'm not?

I'd say #3, and #5, though I have yet to get laid due to something that I've written. But there is always the hope of it happening. (Sigh)

Just the stuff on Lit? Oh, well, that's all right, then. The stuff on Lit, I'm quite proud of and happy with. As long as they don't dig up that damnable Scooby story, I'm good!
