…I have this idea. Well, sort of. I was randomly looking at something and then someone who enables my evil suggested something and and one thing led to another and….
Here’s the thing. I want to know if anyone reading this would be interested in a Billy short story.
If I were to write a Billy short and put it up here as kind of a donation/fundraiser/penny-tossage thing, would anyone be interested in that? It would be totally self-serving. Because there’s Something I Want. As all the pennies I’m saving this year are going For Scotland, this would be an extraneous thing to indulge a completely selfish “Dina Wants A Shiny” thing.
Normally this wouldn’t be an issue as I would just tell He Who Enables My Crazy that “I wish to own this shiny thing” and it would appear because he loves me. However this year, I am being good. I have forsaken my yarn. I have said “no” to new Lord Vader things for my collection.
But this shiny I want. This I greatly desire. No, I’m not telling you what it is just yet, but those who have seen it have all said the same thing: “You must own that.”
For this shiny, I will write an exclusive short story I will offer to you, my readers, in exchange for some pennies tossed at the Shiny Thing Fund I will set up if this idea generates enough interest.
Now, I’m busy writing Stranger Things III (Death Knell), so I need to know if there’s enough interest in a short in order to spend time on it. So, I created a poll:
Feel free to comment. I don’t discriminate between encouragement and dissuasion.
Do keep in mind that this eviltry is still in the “idea” stage, and I’m just gauging interest. It might go absolutely nowhere, so don’t get your hopes up. We’ll see. If there is enough interest, I will post a link/pic to the shiny thing I’ll be raising the money for.

Werewolves > vampires. Always.

My purse is waiting to throw money at you for Billy. I adore him. And, shiny things, we all need those.

I had a clever comment written, but my blog ate it. It’s a clear sign that it’s bedtime now! It was something about “wants” and “needs,” but it’s all very fuzzy now. No wonder. It’s 3AM (which is about my bedtime).

I like Billy. I like Shiny Things. I believe this endeavor is relevant to my interests. 🙂 *looks around for pennies*
