What would you do?
What is the first thing you would do if your book sold over a million copies? How would you celebrate? I don't know about you guys but I'd throw one hell of a party.

I'd be scared as shit. I'd be obsessed with trying to top my platinum status debut. I'd probably buy my own private pool and gym. Those three dollar entry fees add up...

I'm with you. I saw a book in the library on the great architecture of Colorado, and I have to tell you from skimming, I was very impressed, so much so I rank it up there amongst the worlds historical best. I would loooove to party, fuck, and create memories up in one f those pieces. |

I'd realise my work is done and take a holiday in somewhere like Japan.

i'd buy a Victorian mansion, complete with a library, goldfish pond in the garden and my own, personal mausoleum. Then I'd write my butt off to finish another book so I can afford keeping it.

Faint, methinks.

I would help out my family a bit.. they have put up with too much of my shit over the years so I kinda owe them.. Then I would buy a nice house and apply for half custody of my son.. Then I would probably start working on the sequel..
I hate all my freinds and girlfreinds and I hate parties so I wouldnt be celebrating with those fucks..
Ild probably hire 5 high class whores and have my own private sex party..and that would be the most I would celebrate..
I would buy my son a whole bunch of toys and spoil him rotten.. hes put up with so much of my shit.. Ive let him down alot..

I'd most likely scream and jump around the room. Then call everyone I know and tell them.
