Cal.E.'s Korner

C.: Well, d.c. is busy today. He said something about finishing a book. I don’t know if that means he’s finishing reading a book, writing one, editing one he’s already written, or something else.

Also, if he is editing a book, I wonder it it’s a first rough draft, a second draft, a third draft, or a finished draft. Maybe he’s just saying that to get me to write today’s blog by myself….or maybe he has plans to do something really important, like buy me a gift! That would be cool. We’ve been writing this blog for four years, and I have yet to get a raise. Of course, zero times any number is still zero, so a percentage raise would be useless, but maybe he’s going to the bank to take out a  loan so he can give me the back pay that he owes me for the last four years, as soon as he decides what my salary should be.

And…this blog is called Cal.E.’s Korner, so I should get something for branding. That’s really hot right now. Maybe I should just ask for a lump sum of money for supplying me brand to this blog…or, I could just ask for a percentage of sales…no, that won’t be good. That’s because d.c. says that writing is like playing poker, if the writer can break even, s/he or they should consider themselves to be doing well….but, some really good poker players make money, so there’s that. Hmm.. now let’s see, should I ask for a salary, a percentage of the profits that this blog makes, or a lump sum for branding…Well, I’ll let you know what I decide tomorrow, right here on Cal.E.’s Korner.
