The Vanity Publisher - Part IIII

December 20th, 2007 by --KALEB NATION--

PART I | PART II | PART III

This short story was written many years ago by myself in retaliation to a certain subsidy publisher who had been hounding me with junk mail, all of which is now happily stuffing some old shoes. It should be known by the reader that I purposefully wrote this in a casual style: all errors were intentional. —Kaleb

CONTINUED…

The author, who was now filled with a zeal to save the lives of so many other hapless authors, decided to do something that is not recommended by anyone, and certainly not by the author of this work. Instead of cash, he put an angry alligator in the box and shipped it straight back to the subsidy publisher. When the subsidy publisher opened the box, something inevitably terrible happened; and the author, now worth his salt, finished his book, found an agent and a real publishing house, and lived very happily ever after.

    Ha! I got the same offer! I thought someone was playing a practical joke on me! Stupid bloodsuckers! I sent them back a weeks worth of junk mail. I hate throwing things away…
