NOT TRUE! I just happened to be looking over there and then happened to write the same thing she did!

Come on guys, you know there is no point in writing, lets just quit doing it and be farmers (who don't write).

[Rocket Sheep]

Quitting writing is, of course, a sensible idea. But to become a Farmer? Trade in one primary production role for another? Do you think we like putting ourselves in a position where we can be exploited?

No, no, we need to crawl up to the top of the food chain. :rolleyes:

[lin]

Exactly. Do what all the other failed writers do...become agents and editors.

[TheGhost]

Wow, I thought we were all in this for the money.

Guess I'm the only one raking in the big bucks. After my vacation in southern France... I'm thinking safari.

[Bent Arrowni]

To be fair, the whole concept of farming is about messing up with the food chain. Besides, nothing is better than milking a goat.

I'm sorry, this is a science fiction and fantasy forum. I think beastiality is covered in one of those other forums your mother warned you about. ;)

The Ghost is very funny. Unless she/he's a ghost writer for a celebrity. I need a celebrity to ghost write for.

I just need one of those income things people keep talking about. Perhaps I should shelve my writing, plug a sprig of wheat in my mouth, mount the ol' John Deere and bellow a "YEEEE-HAAAAAWWWW!!!" An' Howdee hi-diddlee-eye-oh, TheGhost! If'n yer lookin' fer a good, root n tootin' hoe-down of a rip-roarin' good time, come on down ta mah Nebraskan farm, whare ya'll can have all the bear ya can shoot, an' all from the comfort of the back porch, where we can set a cooler full of Pabst Blue Ribbon! Sounds good, hanh?

Rocket Sheep is already ghost writing for herself, you know. Her real name is Prudence Patience Etticutt, a lass of Scots descent on her Tartan sire's side and New Zealand on her dam's side. She did not get educated in the traditional way, it just happened to happen one night over a bottle of Shiraz. The next morning she woke up illuminated and brilliant and a beacon to the world. That's why she writes about ghosts, cannibals, simulacrums, and such.
She doesn't do it for the money. That's just the cover she uses with her family who want to know why she is always up in the attic. No, she does it because she is slyly bent on world domination. Come to think of it, what better reason for writing can there be than world domination?

You mean you don't remember that thread from several months back? God, I wish I hadn't tackled that poster 'cause for months that thread was the first thing that'd come up on a Google search of my name. >_<
