Perhaps $5k for a Twitter account wasn't a great investment after all

Millions of Followers? For Book Sales, ‘It’s Unreliable.’

Social-media fandom can help authors score book deals and bigger advances, but does it translate to how a new title will sell? Publishers are increasingly skeptical.

He made the $5,000 back in two weeks after he got his account back, stlaker. Now shut, your, fucking moutf.

Kinda explains why he is so obsessed about his follower count. Getting bigger advances possibilities. (Also his ego) Seems like no publisher will even touch him at this point. Im actually surprised the science channel still calls him. He must do that for donuts and gas money.

For Pat, his Twitter really was his only chance. Dyslexic editor admitted to publishing him due to his political firebranding on Twitter and not his actual work. Lost his blue checkmark for breaking Twitter's terms. Lost his publisher. That small blue icon was his lifeline and he won't get it back in time to resuscitate his failed dreams.

• Hasn't even been able to get a shitty opinion article written in a long time.
• Teen Vogue ain't knockin'.
• He must have 50 screenplays in production given how often he talks about starting them.
• None of his started sequel books have been completed.
• No guest appearances on podcasts or at panels.
• All his blue checkmark buddies on Twitter eventually figure him out and mute him.
• Remember his appearances lecturing students on becoming a writer? Haven't seen that in years.
• Two minute drills. Gone.

I would be an alcoholic too if I had to numb the pain of being a man in his 40s with nothing going on.

He must have read it here and felt the need to respond. Enjoy the cope, he tweeted it twice because he's a dumb cunt.

Of course good old Double Dip Rick had to make sure everyone saw Mama Raven's Special Boy's Very Special Tweet.

Phew. Good thing he isn’t massively in debt and his cyberstalkers will all be in jail soon.

Pat, you're out of your element here. The only "new releases" you've had in the past 14 months have been absorbed by your couch cushions. You're through.
