I have more Ghost Hunters and Wrestling shows that need a home!” Exec 2: “Do you mean…?” Exec 1: “Absolutely. Cancel it. Do it now! What are you waiting for?! RUN, FOREST! RUN!”

I SPENT A YEAR WRITING THIS FREAKING BOOK!” *fists balled in rage, staring at the heavens* “INNNNTEEERRRRRNEEEETTTTTT!”
* * *
“It’s okay, it’s okay… I’ll just start the other book I’ve been kicking around. Now, where did I put my Microsoft Zune…?”
