I'm Writing A Bestseller!!

Post by Sades »

... Really! It's gonna be huge...

It shall be called "1001 Reasons Not To Buy This Book" :D, A four-chapter opus created only for my amusement. It shall be done whenever I get around to it, and shall feature a full color, glossy centrefold of a bowl of chicken soup. With broccoli. :D

I have the chapter titles all in place...

Chapter 1: Living with French Poodles
Chapter 1 1/3: Random Monkeys
Chapter three: Getting Bored Yet?
and, of course, Chapter Fore: Mispelling Made Easy: Use a Fork

... Now, all I need is content. I think I shall start with... "It was a dark and stormy night... and then I fell asleep and forgot about it."

Now... My question is... would you buy it? :confused: I must know before I begin, after all... Suggestions are welcome, also... :D

I'd buy it, I'm sick of knocking Bombshell/Mirage out with my fists....

Chapter 74: 'the diet of Skywarp's rats?'

I only expect Sadie to understand that...

Don't forget the liberal/conservative conspiracy so you can avoid Sheba and Screamer...

And be sure to throw in an act that can juggle chainsaws, you can't go wrong with something like that...

Yes, I would buy it, and possibly even read it. Could you also put a chapter in about living with Poodles of other nationalities?

Yeah I'd buy it. Need something to prop up the one corner of my couch.

How about a chapter about Penguin's that steal sanity?

That actually sounds pretty cool. I think I may just steal your idea...

Galvatron84, you steal my half-baked idea and you shall feel the wrath of a thousand miniature marching platypuses made out of clay, pipe cleaners, and rubber cement. Now then...

*furiously skibbles notes*

Sleep? Suggestion noted... and ignored. ;) :p Also, tamarins and dogs do, indeed, mix... if the tamarin is insane, and hungry enough... and wearing a little sweater. The dogs don't stand a chance. :p

Sparky, you want me to devote an entire chapter to your rats?!?... yeah, well... only if you take Jagger. He's trying to teach me dance moves. Help!

Kickers, these are no ordinary rats. They eat... um, lint. Yeah. And aging rock stars. :p

Red... juggling chainsaws, gotcha... But, how am I gonna fit the person in there? Ah well, it'll drive the price up... And, for that suggestion, you now have to buy it. :D

Sixy... poodles of other nationalities? But... I thought all poodles were French. At least, that's what it seems when I turn on the TV... I'll add something about Dobermans, though... and Alsatians, just so the poodles don't look so... singled out. :p

Sheba... :D I gave it to you, it just made sense... big transforming cougar, tackle-hug! Soooo fitting... okay, Sheebs gets her own chapter... "Tacklehugging giant transforming cougars, and their relationship to the Spork: An essay in D minor". :p

But, Unicron... I've never had my sanity stolen by Penguins. It's been hijacked by desert dwellers and put up for sale on the black market, but no penguins...

*skibble skibble*

Okay... that about does it. I've decided that all the stuff you guys mentioned will be stuffed into the little empty page that is always at the back of any bestseller, while I ramble on for 39 chapters about little circus ponies and making things out of mud. Also, the last 638 chapters will be nothing but a solid block of wood, seeing as how we've a couple of violent potential buyers... and I'd like to make sure people get their money's worth.

Why did I decide to push all your stuff into one tiny page? Well, I hate to tell you guys this, but... you people are wierd. Like, really, really wierd. Like, "Wow" weird. ;)

Ok. Then how about something with a Shapeshifting Camel? or maybe a giant squirrel strapped with C4?

Robin Lefler is also a mainstay character in Peter David's Star Trek: New Frontier series, as is her mother Morgan Lefler... I'll leave you to find out the rest for yourselves... :)
