RE: FLASH FICTION: Dear Jimmy

in #fiction6 years ago

It’s awesome how much you bounce around genre wise in the fiction world. The imagination knows no bounds and you sir have an excellent one. But that’s only half the battle. You also have the talent and the knowledge to apply that imagination to paper. Something I’ve never been good at. Great job Dan.

Thanks @tbyrd, as always your comments are motivating, much appreciated! I remember from your intro, you read fantasy a fair bit...have you attempted to write some of your own stories?

Compliments to you are well deserved. Attempted? Oh yes many times. I even wrote about 4 pages worth of crap one time. I’m afraid I do not posses the skill set.

By the way, what the hell were you talking about the other day with some kinda opportunity? You’re not running Mary Jane across the border or anything huh?

Oh, hahahhha, I think you mentioned something about a market for bottled farts and I was riffing on the opportunity potential for that market, claiming to have an opportunity to pursue. At this point I must come clean. I don't actually possess any legitimate insight into how to effectively develop or market to the as-yet nonexistent market for bottled flatulence. That being said, I think there is at least a small amount of potential in creating a market for flatulence sniffing. It will certainly require some clever sales techniques. I can barely convince a social network of 600,000 folks to sprinkle $.75 worth of fake internet money on stories that sometimes take me hours to suss out. I don't think I'm going to be able to sell my farts at this point in life.

Hahaha. Damn. Should have picked up on that. Hmmmm. I bet we could come up with some pretty good ideas for that market though. You’ve already laid out the blueprint.
