The Real Estate Thread: Buying/Selling/Tips/News

[Mickey]

But certainly if you just want it out there self-publishing is an increasingly popular route and there's something to be said about your work being in the world rather than just on your compy.

[wease]

Which is not to say, don't self-publish, but a work is actually far more likely to be adapted as a TV show/movie if it unpublished with agent representation.

Wouldn’t it be “out there” in a sense if it has agent representation?

Thread derailment like this is what got GD deleted the last time. True story.

Totally. But good luck getting some poor slob out there to represent my shit, y'know? If it was that easy to get an agent, I'd have 15 of them!

It's all tied to this poor shithead named Durden's desire to buy a house one day, Bammer. Keep up!

Yeah and I know you know that, I just meant for wease. My wife doesn't have an agent yet either fwiw, so it's definitely not easy.

Joey, would you be willing to leave NYC? That seems like the first obstacle.

[bart]

To getting a literary agent?!

[epilogue]

Joey, would you be willing to leave NYC? That seems like the first obstacle.

Like I said before, I'm willing to leave, yes. But I don't know what I'd do for work elsewhere. I make way more money here in a box office than the job deserves, frankly.

NYC is the only place I've ever lived where I'm not paycheck to paycheck, oddly enough.

There is a wolf in me . . . fangs pointed for tearing gashes . . . a red tongue for raw meat . . . and the hot lapping of blood—I keep this wolf because the wilderness gave it to me and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fox in me . . . a silver-gray fox . . . I sniff and guess . . . I pick things out of the wind and air . . . I nose in the dark night and take sleepers and eat them and hide the feathers . . . I circle and loop and double-cross.

There is a hog in me . . . a snout and a belly . . . a machinery for eating and grunting . . . a machinery for sleeping satisfied in the sun—I got this too from the wilderness and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fish in me . . . I know I came from salt-blue water-gates . . . I scurried with shoals of herring . . . I blew waterspouts with porpoises . . . before land was . . . before the water went down . . . before Noah . . . before the first chapter of Genesis.

There is a baboon in me . . . clambering-clawed . . . dog-faced . . . yawping a galoot's hunger . . . hairy under the armpits . . . here are the hawk-eyed hankering men . . . here are the blonde and blue-eyed women . . . here they hide curled asleep waiting . . . ready to snarl and kill . . . ready to sing and give milk . . . waiting—I keep the baboon because the wilderness says so.

There is an eagle in me and a mockingbird . . . and the eagle flies among the Rocky Mountains of my dreams and fights among the Sierra crags of what I want . . . and the mockingbird warbles in the early forenoon before the dew is gone, warbles in the underbrush of my Chattanoogas of hope, gushes over the blue Ozark foothills of my wishes—And I got the eagle and the mockingbird from the wilderness.

O, I got a zoo, I got a menagerie, inside my ribs, under my bony head, under my red-valve heart—and I got something else: it is a man-child heart, a woman-child heart: it is a father and mother and lover: it came from God-Knows-Where: it is going to God-Knows-Where—For I am the keeper of the zoo: I say yes and no: I sing and kill and work: I am a pal of the world: I came from the wilderness.

These days is probably easier to self publish, build a following, and use that as social proof to attract an agent, then have them sell it to a publisher, then movie deal.

See? Easy!

[BurtReynolds]

Or move to California and become a staff writer and work your way up from there.

A child could do it it's so easy.

It really is an awful part of town and the commute to/from anywhere would suck so hard…But on the plus side you’d be within walking distance to The Comedy Store and you could pay your respects to River Phoenix on your morning coffee trip

been there, done that...its more fun to grab a drink at the rainbow
