weight-loss book
So I lost 135 pounds, right? Without drugs, surgery, psychological disorders (I think), or a pact with Satan. They say that almost everyone who loses weight gains it all back within five years, but it’s been a year, and (so far) I’ve kept it off. I have done this by mostly resisting pizza.
Delicious, delicious pizza…
Where was I?
Oh, right – people keep telling me to write a book. And I thought, why not? Say 40,000 to 50,000 tongue in cheek words describing my adventures in physical fitness in my usual cheeky (or, let us be blunt, “smartass”) style. I could do that in a month. I wouldn’t even have to get it published, either – I could stick it on Amazon, B&N, Smashwords, all the usual sites, as a $0.99 ebook. That way when people ask about it, I could point them at the sites, and I would turn enough profit to buy a Happy Meal.
Wait – not a Happy Meal. Reduced-sodium chicken paste, or something like that.
So, what do you think? Bad idea, or not?
Sorry, there are no polls available at the moment.
I’ve had the money for a Happy Meal on many an occasion without buying one.
I had the money on many an occasion, and then proceeded to buy one. Or several. Which, in retrospect, was kind of a problem.
Is voting closed? I say yes – and you’ve got at least one guaranteed sale, too! (but I’m betting you’d get a bunch)
Frankly, I bet you could easily get some free publicity if you wanted through local papers, tv, etc. Everyone loves your kind of do-it-yourself, hard-work success story.
Even better if you can find some corporation to credit for it, and get them to use you as a spokesperson!
