And if you stopped giving your work away for free you’d have your $1000.

I’m sorry. I don’t see the bragging rights in writing a freebee. I’ve had tons of my music used in indie films and training videos and have been featured on many music sites. It’s fun and flattering to be asked for a “gimme” but at the end of the day it’s still donated work.

Something you wrote ended up in a blimp rag. One of my tracks was used in a corp training video about ergonomic something or another. **Ok you SDMB mother fuckers! Bow to us! We be teh famous!**

:rolleyes:

When people start cutting big checks with your name THEN you’ve got bragging rights. Until then, no one wants to suck your cock.

No. Jealousy does not imply that you strive for that for which you are jealous. It simply implies that you do not have it.

You’re just jealous of my tits.
