BAH! My ferret sleeps 23 & 1/2 hours daily, awakening only when I feed him, clean his litter box and let him out. He runs around for about 15 minutes and then curls up under the covers on my bed.
I recall seeing a book (about 35 years ago) in the Sunnyvale, CA public library with the following title:
How To Write Ten Best-Sellers, Now, In Your Spare Time And Become The First Author On Your Block (Unless There's Already An Author Living On Your Block, In Which Case You'll Become The Second Author On Your Block, And That's Okay, Too) and Other Stories.
My Name is Batman.
You Killed my Father.
Prepare to Die.
(Okay, now let's see some crash testing on hearses, stretch limousines, and motor homes!)
How To Write Ten Best-Sellers, Now, In Your Spare Time And Become The First Author On Your Block (Unless There's Already An Author Living On Your Block, In Which Case You'll Become The Second Author On Your Block, And That's Okay, Too) and Other Stories.
It was in the humor section.
