Fanfare! Living the high life all thanks to my writing :-)

Something I co-wrote with another scribbler of this parish today finally came up trumps. It produced earnings from our labours and has made all that slog worthwhile.

My royalty funded one of the poppadums in tonight’s curry takeaway.

I now think I understand what life as JK Rowling must be like.

What price a naan bread next time.

Naans are THAT cheap in Reading???

(Note to self, must get curry from Reading.)

The poppadoms in my local are £0.85.

You'd have had to owe them for the balance.

Yeah but the delivery costs or your petrol costs will push it up.

I think we need to plot that our next royalty pay out funds two coffees and slices of cake in the Green Room Cafe.

We gotta think bigger.

Yeah, ours too. But I was trying to crack on I’m rather more successful than what I actually am

And it wasn't on the house??? The poppadum, that is.

JK gets freebies.

 

[Barbara]

It would be nice to get freebie curry...

No I had to pay. But he’s dangled a carrot.

He told me that if I’m interviewed on local radio at some point in the future and I give the restaurant a shout-out, there’s a year’s worth of free “all I can handle” pickle tray with my name on it.

Now that’s what I CALL an incentive.

One of them?
