Ricks thoughts on literary success

[Mr-Wrinkle-Paws]

 

[peckafacce]

Maybe if he were good at writing he could have made it a career and not a hobby. You are paid what you are worth. If you don't put forth the effort you aren't going to succeed. When was the last time he finished writing a book?

 

[Will Tate]

This question could have as many different answers as people answering it, but no, the only correct answer is coming from a corpulent failure whose last book sold less than 300 copies. I can feel the desperation seeping from those oinking tweets.

 

[SmellenShoehorn]

Fat lazy narcissist thinks he is underpaid and should have to work less.

Shocking.

I don't know if antagonizing publishers on record is the best tactic to getting a book deal.

 

[Juschippinyababe]

r/antiwork moderator Pat is a predictable, fat and faggoty character

 

[DanFielding]

If he‘s really as successful as he pretends to be, he would be better off self publishing. But the stupid hog thinks he’s not a real author unless he’s thousands of dollars in debt to a publisher and only making 50¢ per book sold.

"we're being asked to do more than ever before"

No you aren't. You're not being asked to do anything by anyone in the publishing industry. Fat liar.

"we're being asked to do more than ever before"

No you aren't. You're not being asked to do anything by anyone in the publishing industry. Fat liar.

Couple of days ago it was Twitter causing the lack of sales

 

[Slackjawed Cow]

So pat is content with his lonely book signings and poor sales.

"we're being asked to do more than ever before"

No you aren't. You're not being asked to do anything by anyone in the publishing industry. Fat liar.

It really is an insane statement given his horrendous work ethic and lifestyle

 

[Clint Ruin]

We're being asked to do more than ever before

You're not even being asked to write good stories. If anything, not near enough is being asked of you.

 

[NoBacon]

His definition of a comfortable living is having a predatory interest only mortgage for credit delinquents on that dilapidated 200 year old crack den in a black ghetto, next to a halfway house?

Old places can look nice, but his looks horrendous, it looks like he’s never cleaned his stove, it’s caked in grease and filth. He put a giant cheap fridge (didn’t he brag about it, when it was like 2k?) in his kitchen and it takes up about a third of the floor space and looks ridiculous.

His master bedroom can fit a double bed in and nothing else, it doesn’t even have room for a bed side table without making it impossible to shut the door.

if I was a college student again, I wouldn’t even brag about his mustang, it’s 15 years old and has enough miles to have completed a round trip to the moon and has been in accidents, it’s an embarrassing car for anybody, let alone a 49 year old man.

He is an abject failure in every sense of the word, they only have the hovel because they signed a better call Saul mortgage deal - his real income is PPP fraud and disability welfare.

 

[DanMullen'sRetardedNephew]

Deserve to be paid for it? 'Fonald Plump' would like a word.

Also:

Nice success, stupid.

Most writers don't make a living solely through publishing their work. They have regular jobs and actually do something productive for society at large which is something this leech pig can't wrap his fat head around.

 

[Jim Norton’s Wife's Cock]

The overwhelming majority of authors write as a hobby, if they are good enough to get picked up and earn a comfortable living from it then that is a bonus. The amount of authors who find enough success to quit their day jobs is very slim, for every Stephen King there are countless numbers of other rubes writing vampire erotica. Even pretty successful authors nowadays still have other jobs.

This mentality says a lot about Pat though, he doesn't really give a shit about what he pushes out, he just wants the fame & fortune that comes with it. He wants to be a successful intellectual so badly, but just doesn't have the talent or intellect for it.

I can see this guy demanding a universal basic income from his book publishers...lazy fat commie slob

 

[Bin_The_Blacks]

"we're being asked to do more than ever before"

No you aren't. You're not being asked to do anything by anyone in the publishing industry. Fat liar.

He's being asked to stop sending shitty manuscripts to publishers more than ever, child.

 

[Pringle Can Lothario]

If they paid him $200 a book, he’d still be making less than having a respectable job for six years.

 

[Dummy Gaynuts]

Fat lazy narcissist thinks he is underpaid and should have to work less.

Shocking.

How could he possibly work any less
