Stupid is as stupid does
Get this: on the plane trip back from Arizona on Thursday, I tucked the novel notebook into the seat back pocket, read the rest of the new Jonathan Franzen book, and then got off the plane and came home. Yesterday, I started looking around for the note book with a dozen pages of notes and plot outlines and the first scene pretty much written out and poof! Nowhere.
Oh yeah. On the airplane. Idiot.

Just think ... some businessman from Dayton will pick it up, read it, love it, tell his sister who's in publishing in NY and she'll sign you to a multi-million dollar contract!
My son suggested a similar story, only it landing with a Hollywood agent who'd cough up the millions.
Sadly, I'm 99.9996 percent sure my name or contact info appears nowhere on it.
Sigh.

Even better! It will be like a literary Cinderella. They'll hunt all over the internet to find you and when they finally find you, the asking price will be a few gadzillion bucks!
My only hope of winning the webwide internet hunt is a handwriting comparison test, because mine's so awful only I could/would be able to match the penmanshit.
