My Chariot Arrives
Sent to my inbox this morning:
Hello Friend,
Your new book has brought a lot of excitement to our editorial staff.
It's certainly this year's best in its genre. You seem to never going to
quit surprising us.
We have made a contract with you and guarantee that the first edition
will total at least 10 million copies.
Enclosed is the approved and edited copy of your amazing book. Thank
you for this paragon of beauty.
Please get in touch with us at your earliest convenience.
Till next time
Ha! You hear that, so-called big-time New York publishers? You missed your chance! Surely a guarantee of AT LEAST TEN MILLION COPIES beats anything New York can offer. They think I am a PARAGON OF BEAUTY. So there.
I am going to ignore the fact that this was sent to my alternate email address, one I've never used for submitting. All I have to do is open the attachment and SUCCESS IS MINE.

I applaud your success, of course. I always knew you would track it down one day. Ten million, even (because eight million or so would naturally not be enough to convince you).
I'm just not sure whether to be admiring or appalled that such a mass-mailer (shall we say) would use a phrase like 'paragon of beauty'.
