Your Fifteen Minutes of Fame Here
The First Amendment Project is doing kind of an interesting fundraiser where people can bid on E-Bay to get their names into books written by famous (and not so famous) writers. Authors include Stephen King, John Grisham, Amy Tan, Lemony Snicket, Neil Gaiman, and Peter Straub.
Stephen King, for instance, is offering this:
One (and only one) character name in a novel called CELL, which is now in work and which will appear in either 2006 or 2007. Buyer should be aware that CELL is a violent piece of work, which comes complete with zombies set in motion by bad cell phone signals that destroy the human brain. Like cheap whiskey, it's very nasty and extremely satisfying. Character can be male or female, but a buyer who wants to die must in this case be female. In any case, I'll require physical description of auction winner, including any nickname (can be made up, I don't give a rip).
