Lost My Amateur Status
Behold! Bad Radio’s first royalty statement!
It’s a book milestone that every author honors with the solemn dignity that the occasion deserves.
For example, after bringing the mail inside, I proceeded to celebrate via interpretive dance. As is proper. It must have been too emotionally powerful for the wife, however, because she made me swear never to do it again. Ever.
So, due to the unfair restrictions against fine arts in my house, I’ll have to say this the old-fashioned way: My heartfelt thanks to everyone who helped make this launch such a success. I deeply appreciate it.

Fugitive Prose 
I received my first check on Monday also. So cool to move to the next step!
Also: Congrats! And it was actually yesterday. Sorry, it’s been a long week already. 🙂
Congrats to you, too, Mike. I assume the next step is to buy tophats and monocles, right? *looks at check* Oh, right.
Heh. Exactly. 🙂
You’ve committed a classic newbie error: By blacking out your address how will you ever receive another royalty statement?!
I’m glad your story continuity is better than your grasp of basic real life navigation skills.
Duh, I didn’t write on the pigeon!
Congrats! Soon, we’ll all be able to say we knew you when…. ;-D
Friends: We knew him back when!
Public: You mean before he was a huge jerk?
Friends: No.
