Stop,
in the name
of love

Write
in the name
of art

Publish
to make
money

Keep your hands on wheel
Freedom’s just another word
For eyes upon the road

Have your machine make Haiku from mashed up old pop songs and we might be onto something.

Eager nerds alight
Struggling, money eludes, quit
Cash accrues for me

So sad the haiku
Erupts broken from machine
Garners no profit

I have a subject, cos there’s LOTS of images out there:

Sherlock haiku

Have you SEEN some of the art these kids create? Tie an image to a Sherlock haiku.

If you don’t do this, I will. *grin*

Heather, never one for haiku, except this one guy I remember from dA.

Plus, resellers and affiliate links! We can do a whole pyramid scheme on top of this, where we sell people a turnkey online business for a few grand or so.

Once we borgify all the online retailers & fill up the internet with crap, people will have to buy our books because they won’t be able to find anything better.

Awesome. I’ve never been more proud.

In reply to David.

David, Since it is a series, we can resort to the old ad agency trick of calling them
Haiku Experience: Vol 1 (or Haiku Madness; Vol 1) and so on. That lets us use a sell line of “New & Improved” on every subsequent book. Let’s not let some foolish desire to be creative interfere with the real purpose–making millions. After all, why mess around with an industry as inefficient and plain dumb as publishing if you aren’t going to extract every penny from it?

The bottom is in sight, my friend! I think we have a clear lead on the pack in the headlong rush.
