You would think his agent would handle pitching his work or at least reach out in private. Pat thinks twitter is how you gaslight for a job. There has been so many times he responds to a tweet about a possible job and thinks thats better than sending a resume like a normal person.

Getting Pat to send an actual resume would be a great bit. God only knows what he’d put on there.

Write a 90,000 word novel about Tiny Tim from A Christmas Carol avenging the murder of Ebenezer Scrooge in Victorian England.


ChatGPT
That's quite an intriguing and elaborate plot! Writing a full novel of 90,000 words would take a significant amount of time and effort. Unfortunately, I can't generate an entire novel here, but I can certainly help brainstorm some ideas or outline the main plot points if you'd like! How would you like to develop the story further?

You
Give me a synopsis of what that novel would be like

ChatGPT
In the wake of Ebenezer Scrooge's untimely murder in Victorian England, Tiny Tim, now grown and emboldened, takes it upon himself to unravel the mystery behind his mentor's death. With the lessons of kindness and generosity instilled by Scrooge, Tim navigates the dark alleys and upper echelons of London society to uncover the truth.
Haunted by the memories of Scrooge's transformation, Tim encounters old adversaries and unlikely allies in his quest for justice. Along the way, he discovers hidden motives, deceitful alliances, and the complexities of human nature.
As Tim delves deeper into the investigation, he realizes that avenging Scrooge's death isn't just about retribution but also about understanding the essence of compassion and forgiveness. The journey forces Tim to confront his own past and reconcile with his present, ultimately revealing a path to redemption for both himself and those around him.
Through twists, turns, and unexpected revelations, the novel explores themes of justice, compassion, and the enduring power of second chances, all within the rich tapestry of Victorian England's societal fabric.

You
Who are some of the adversaries?

ChatGPT
Among Tiny Tim's adversaries could be characters representing the darker aspects of Victorian society:
  1. Scheming Business Rivals: Wealthy and conniving industrialists or rival business owners threatened by Scrooge's change of heart. They could have motives tied to financial gain or a desire to maintain the status quo of ruthless capitalism.
  2. Corrupt Officials: Individuals in positions of power, such as corrupt law enforcement officers or politicians, who might have benefited from Scrooge's demise due to his influence or their own ulterior motives.
  3. Former Associates of Scrooge: Characters from Scrooge's past, such as former business partners or employees mistreated by him, seeking revenge for the wrongs they believe he committed against them.
  4. Secret Society or Underground Network: A clandestine group operating in the shadows of society, threatened by the changes Scrooge sought to make. They might have their own agenda and fear exposure or disruption of their operations.
  5. Personal Enemies: Individuals who held personal vendettas against Scrooge, driven by past conflicts or grievances, seeking to settle the score even after his death.
Each adversary could present unique challenges for Tim, testing his resolve, wit, and the lessons he learned from Scrooge as he navigates through the murky depths of Victorian society.

You
How do you see this story ending?

ChatGPT
In the climax, Tiny Tim finally unravels the intricate web of deceit surrounding Scrooge's murder. Confronting the true orchestrator behind the heinous act, Tim faces a moral dilemma — seeking vengeance or choosing to honor the transformative lessons he learned from Scrooge.
In a pivotal moment, Tim embodies the spirit of forgiveness and compassion, opting not for revenge but for justice through legal means. He ensures that the perpetrator faces the consequences of their actions within the confines of the law, upholding the principles of righteousness Scrooge had come to embrace.
Through Tim's actions, the truth about Scrooge's transformation and his legacy of generosity becomes widely known, inspiring others to follow in his footsteps. The novel ends with Tim, having come full circle in his own growth, carrying forward Scrooge's legacy of kindness and goodwill, thereby perpetuating the spirit of Christmas throughout Victorian England.

what is Pat going to do with all the free time now that he's done writing? maybe start going to the gym again? new WIP? squeal more on X?

Anyone know what the unspoken 7th novel is? Was it some vampire anthology thing?
HERD IMMUNITY, it's about saving elephants from extinction... IN SPACE! starring some BIPOC amputee lady! so inclusive!!! we know from that kiwi author that Pat tried and failed to sell it to publishers at some cons

Scalzi published a very similar conservationist-themed scifi book recently. Everyone in the industry probably assumes Pat is am unoriginal hack.

Could be his furry porn Wererats book, that was at least published.

As sinkster mentions: Herd Immunity is a short story he wrote years ago and was last seen fatly trying to sell it to publishers at a pedocon.
If he got the greenlight he would be bloating that out to 90k words.

He teases In the Red to all his "In the Black" fans (<300) but its doubtful he has even written it yet. He kept dangling that carrot out on twitter for TOR who just blanks him.

the furry one was a collection of short stories, one of which was Pat's

Herd Immunity was originally a short story (IIRC it was the one he submitted to the Scientology contest) but he turned the concept into a novel:

as of July he seemed hopeful his agent would sell it, now he doesn't even want to talk about it

it's unclear from his updates if he ever finished the first draft of Herd Immunity, but he definitely spent months at Hoolies pretending to "work" on it

Just sit back, crack a beer, and wait for the offers to come rolling in. Everyone knows that publishers scour twitter for witters to announce they have finished writing a book.

Pat seethes at Scalzi's popularity, and that is hilarious.

“Wrote it Love, Death and Robots” style.

Just like one of his other piles of shit was written in “Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” style.

Maybe come up with your own voice and stop blatantly aping other successful things and someone may take an interest.

If studios are looking for a derivative pile of shit to glom onto a trend for easy profit, they’ll use an established property and established directors/writers, not some fat rube from Wisconsin with no audience or past success.

He defines the term hack. Totally devoid of creative energy.
