The politics and alliances are interesting. As a person who cut the cord (more tomorrow), seeing it from the outside is fascinating.

Guest Post: Why I need Bender as my Literary Agent
(Guest post by Carrie Bailey)
I write. Some people would say I’m a self-published author looking to go the traditional route with my next book, but I like to think of my self as an amateur author ready to go pro. Why not? I need the money. Yeah, I know, it is possible to build up an author platform and market your books yourself, but the process is time consuming. Sure, absolutely, I’m indie until I die, but I also want to sell out so I can afford to stay indie on my time off when I’m not busy selling out.
That’s why I need Bender to be my literary agent. I realize he is fictional. I haven’t lost touch with reality – no. And, yes, I am aware his work experience involves bending, drinking, smoking, and sitting around a delivery warehouse. And I’m sure he doesn’t spend all too much time reading, but in my Futurama loving heart, he’s the right robot for the job.
Smell Like Stan Lee
Maybe we need a “Confusing” tag to the Core Four.
There is Stan Lee Signature Cologne, “Nuff Said.”
Yeah. I know.
Also there will soon be Steve Savage cologne. It smells like tea and Japanese Curry. You get it by visiting my apartment and having tea and Japanese Curry.
Actually, I think this is another sign of Geek Normalization. Just a manly-smelling one.
