Hendricks Thu, 03 Jul 2008 17:29:17 +0000 http://www.kevindhendricks.com/?p=2475#comment-2823 Wow, four comments in like five minutes. I think I've struck a nerve. Andy, I haven't seen an active Comic Book Guy on Twitter. Funny, but seems a little too predictable. I think it's cheating if all you do is pull quotes from someone else's fictional character, and it'd be way too tempting not to do that with Comic Book Guy. ;-) Michael, you're welcome to hire me to give voice to the Holy Cow.

Josh, yeah, doing it for the heck of it would be fun. But I do *way* too many things like that. And while 140 characters once a day isn't very much, it still takes time and brain power. I need to get some tangible benefit from it. I'll keep thinking it over. As these ideas usually go, the more it gets a hold of me the more I can't resist, tangible benefit be damned.

Do you really *need* to get paid for that? I have a fake Twitter character too, and I'm not getting anything for it. Maybe someday it'll mature into something, but I doubt it. I just enjoy writing his stuff, and I hope the people who follow him enjoy it too. Dude, it doesn’t take that long to write a blurb once or twice a day. Do you really *need* to get paid for that?
