I think you and Mr Carolla have got it exactly right. And if you move fast, you could have an instant bestseller on your hands.
The EMOTIONAL INCONTINENCE Method
Be The Worst You Can Be!
No Shame - No Gain!
Fame & Fortune In Just Five Mortifying Steps
by Adam Carolla and K.M. Artlu
(Yes, every bestseller requires at least three subtitles nowadays. People have to be able to read the book before they buy it.)
It shouldn't be more than about 100 pages long. One week's work, max. Large type, big spaces, lots of cartoons and photos and bullet points and funny jokes and exclamation marks!! But with a serious and uplifting message!!! You could fill the back cover with testimonials from, say, Kathy Griffin, Caitlyn Jenner, Keith Olbermann, Alex Jones, and the Leave Britney Alone guy. None of them is averse to publicity of any kind, or to acquiring it by any means possible.
Talking of which, Donald Trump will surely be happy to provide a foreword, in tweet form. A 17-part tweetstorm. He could call it "My Struggle".
You could arrange a tie-in with Oprah and an appearance on her show. You should both weep when you meet her, until the audience applauds and also weeps. Then Oprah will weep too, then you'll all smile through the tears, then the audience will cheer and whistle and stamp their feet, and weep. It'll be a truly beautiful moment. You are so brave.
Damn, I'm crying myself now. Trump has broken me too. Russian scum! I need to read your book. You need to write it. I deserve it. If you don't, you'll ruin my life, you bitch. I'm scared. Why are you persecuting me? I am going to eat my own nose.
- Shit, I'm beginning to believe this could really work. I demand an acknowledgement and a modest 10% of the profits. (I have always
wanted a penthouse apartment on Central Park West.)
