As you sit at the best dern laundramat in Milltown, names of some of the greatset literary/satirist writers glance off the spin cycle. Hunter S. Thompson, Chuck Palahniuk, Denis Johnson, Norman Mailer, Jack Kerouac, Kurt Vonnegut, Joseph Heller, and a whole lot more. Breathing in the mold and mildew of damp crete, seeing navel lint decorating the floor you ask yourself, what do you have in common with these fine writers?
On February 28th your editor, Sean, wrote you with some great news and a question. You answered. Hell yes!
On March 1st Sean introduced you to another editor named Amy. You told Sean and Amy they were fuckin' geniuses. Amy felt this was much better than being called a genius.
Why is that?
And what do you have in common with these writers?
And why are you writing this in the second person?
You're writing in the second person because that's how you taught yourself long ago when you first read a Chuck Palahniuk book. And now you get to hang out in the same pages you read him in many times over the years. That's right, you're going to be in PLAYBOY!! Your Hill Clan stories will be published in PLAYBOY MAGAZINE later this year. And you couldn't have done it without the support of your freinds, family, Agent and Editors (whom have become part of your northeastern kin).
