    • i probably could never get my life story published so i will just sell it here, assuming one can do such at this forum?

    It is handwritten so probably no one will buy it. But i could type up a Cliffs Notes kind of version and sell that.

    I'm being somewhat facetious. But i do have a lot of pages of just... ramblings and etc...

    have thought of publishing some kind of story but no publisher would touch it b/c.. well, i just am a little too Catholic for most people. And CAtholic publishers wouldn't accept it b/c i criticize the Catholic Church, talk of bad priests i have known and etc.... etc... etc...  :fryingpan:  :sad:

    • In case you didn't post this for laughs, I'm pretty sure there's no way to monetize your writings here.

    Have you tried getting a editor and then taking it to a traditional Catholic publisher?  You might have more success that way.  Yet, when push comes to shove, most people do not make much money off selling books even if they are published unless they get the media behind them.  Maybe you could edit it though and make copies to share with your family.  :-)

    • “The magnificent Ms. Laurence was a proud professional, offended by anyone who didn’t adequately respect her craft,” he writes. “Once at a Montreal reception, a distinguished gentleman came up to her and gushed, ‘Oh, I’m so glad to meet you. I’ve read everything you’ve written. I’m a brain surgeon, and when I retire, I’m going to do novels, too!’ 

    She looked at him with pretend enthusiasm, grabbed him by the elbow, and bellowed, ‘What a coincidence! When I retire, I’m going to be a brain surgeon.’”

    Anything can be published, as long as you don't promote terrorism or racism, and if you don't libel anyone.

    Today, only Catholics holding the sedevacantist position are free from the anguish entailed by this truth.
