I've had plenty of check stubs. (Very, very small ones) You're a writer. Lots of people who have gotten BIG check stubs (President pixiedust springs to mind) who couldn't write a grocery list.
I have gotten lotsalittles - but candy bar money is not my idea of high living. Especially when a two ounce for a nickel Hershey bar is a buck ten for 1.87 ounces. Plus tax.
I still have the very first check that anyone ever sent me for something that I wrote. I never cashed it. It was for a hundred dollars, and it was signed by J. Orlin Grabbe.
I'll be keeping that one, like I have for over ten years now.

ReplyDeleteI've gotten four checks, and I'm just an over-the-transom guy.
ReplyDeleteJust print something out and drop it in the mail. Good things happen.

ReplyDeleteSmile when you call me a writer, pardner.

You mean this shoe box full of rejection slips doesn't make me a writer? Well, shucky darns!
