Transcript:
Pig: Behold! You are looking at a published author! Goat; Congrats, Pig! What'd you write? Pig: A comment on an internet message board. Goat: Not sure that's the same. Pig: It was pretty snarky, but I think that still counts
I think someone has to pay you to be considered published. If snark on the interwebs was a paying gig, the economy wouldn’t be in the turlet right now.
Behold, a Published Author this way comes! Pig deserves some kind of prize for making us all instant published authors! Hooray for Pig! (Butt out, Goat.)
“It was a dark and stormy night. Suddenly, a shot rang out! A door slammed. The maid screamed. Suddenly, a pirate ship appeared on the horizon!"Hey! I’m now also a Plagiarist!
Nothing is easy, nothing good is freeBut I can tell you where to startTake a look inside your heartThere’s an answer in your heart.Fight the good fight every momentEvery minute every dayFight the good fight every momentMake it worth the price we pay- Triumph
I would never, in a million years, consider posting anything on an internet site. Also, the very notion of reading any such postings makes my head spin.

That’s not how you become a published author, Pig; you do it by writing dirty poems on restroom walls.

Pig? Snarky? No way. Clueless, i would believe. Snarky? No, not buying it.

Pig’s idea of snarky: I disagree. [wish more people used this idea of snarky]

most of the stuff written on FB, is not worth a thought…a look on my dogs face has more meaning.

I can get published in the local paper—does it count if only 24 people read it?
