Should Writers Mortgage A Long-Shot Future For Immediate Prosperity?

 

“MLB prospect is inviting you to share in his career,” said the Instagram ad. It was provocative and inviting. It also made me think that authors can also do what this baseball player was doing— gambling possible future earnings for a guaranteed payday now.  

The online post was offering people a chance to get paid several times their investment, pending down-the-road earnings from a young baseball player in the mid-level Minor Leagues. It had a cap. He was selling off the first 25 million dollars that he may earn down the road in exchange for a shot to get up to $2.5 million now.  

Is this a scam or does it come with fine print that makes it hard to collect? Who knows, but we will assume it is a legit offer, no strings attached, totally to be honored for the sake of this exercise.  

Imagine selling off your future like that?   

It is a little like selling your house via a reverse mortgage or getting the cash value on a life insurance policy before one dies. Some people are in need, even desperate, and need to cash in now— even if it means they are giving up a lot more later.  

Is this the act of desperation — of someone who knows the odds of getting a big baseball payday are rare — or someone who is calculating and confident that he will make more later but needs to get some now, even at the high price of giving away 90 percent of his initial potential earnings?  

Okay, so, let’s weigh this — and then look to see if writers should do this, a kind of Go Fund Me campaign that could help you break through or lead to bankruptcy.  

The minimum wage of anyone playing Major League Baseball this year is $780,000, but the average annual salary is $5,160,000. Some elite players have long-term contracts that guarantee they will earn well over $700,000,000 in their careers. Many players can also earn endorsement and public appearance fees. But before you quit your day job to take up the sport, know that very few people get to play at the top level and even fewer play long enough to make tens of millions of dollars.   

There are no more than 800 people at any one time who are playing for a Big League team.   

To get to the Major Leagues, players typically come from the Minor League system, which employs some 5,000 players.  So, there are six players vying for each spot on a Major League roster. But not all spots are actually available. Teams maybe turn only 20 to 25 percent of their roster over in a year — due to injuries, trades, free agent signings, retirements — and some of the openings are being filled by players from other teams who are already in the MLB. So, it means there are few openings for so many Minor Leaguers.   

How many will get a call up — and how many will get to stick around for long?  

Minor Leaguers barely clear $30,000 annually. 

Would you sign your future away? How much of a future do you think you have — and what price can you put on it?  

Authors can propose the same thing as this ballplayer. You could sell away a certain amount of future earnings from your books for a smaller pay day now.  Let’s say you agree to give a 5-1 payoff to investors. This means if you want to sell your first $250,000 in potential book profits for $50, 000 now, you guarantee some immediate income.   

You could invest that money in stocks or real estate and perhaps see it double in seven years. You could buy into a small business. Or you can reinvest it into your writing career and allow you some time to just write and market your books without obstacles or distractions.  

You may never make much money with your books, let alone a quarter-million dollars, so why not grab a sure thing?  

Because writers believe in themselves and are dreamers, ever eternal optimists. They hope their book will break through the clutter and suddenly hit best-seller lists, win awards, get turned into a movie, or lead to a career of writing and fame.  

Authors actually do the opposite of the ballplayer selling off potential earnings for smaller guarantees now. They go deep into their pockets now, hoping it is an investment for a future payday. They will borrow, beg, steal, and trade their time, money, and resources to establish their author brand now, trying to game their lottery chances of future success.  

There is no easy road for writers, no guaranteed path to riches. But the art of writing puts you on a wonderful journey that is worth pursuing, even when you have to take risks, invest a lot, and work hard.   

Should you sell your dream to someone else? I think you know the answer.

Take Your Child To The Library Day Turns 15

  

On the first Saturday in February, (February 7^th) thousands of libraries across the world celebrate Take Your Child to the Library Day by offering free, fun, fabulous activities for families. Your local library is an ideal place for children to connect with each other and bond over the act of discovery through reading books, playing games, making friends, and having fun. 

Visit your library’s website or give them a call to see what they have planned. Then mark your calendar for Take Your Child to the Library Day. Stop in for a visit. Enjoy the activities. Get a library card (they're free!), meet your children's librarian, and explore all the wonders that your local library has to offer your family. And be sure to stop in again soon – because every day is a great day to take your child to the library.Because child readers become grown-up leaders. Children who are

Take Your Child to the Library Day (TYCLD) was founded a decade and a half ago in 2011 at the Waterford Public Library in Connecticut by retired librarian Nadine Lipman with help from librarian Caitlin Augusta and author/illustrator Nancy Elizabeth Wallace.

 

Thanks to the Association for Children's Library Services, https://takeyourchildtothelibrary.org/ says Take Your Child to The Library Day should be celebrated because:

 

·         “Child readers become grown-up leaders. Children who are proficient in reading by the end of grade 3 are significantly more likely to graduate high school, opening doors to a bright future.

 

·         “Storytime is a key building block to school success. Library story times and programs for babies and preschoolers teach social and academic skills that directly translate to early school success.

 

·         “The internet is for everyone. Libraries provide key access to internet, Wi-Fi, computers and other devices, ensuring all children start on a level playing field.

 

·         “Homework shouldn't cause headaches. After school programs provide improved school performance, decreased drug use, and foundational life skills.

 

·         “Libraries transform lives. Every day your local library is creating connections, igniting curiosity, and enriching lives.”

 

Libraries are a gift to us and children should be encouraged to utilize what they have to offer. Take your child to the library today - -and every day!

Authors, Market To Your Secondary Readers, Too

 

 

Here is an interesting stat: In the US, pornhub visitors break down 72-28% men/women. Internationally, it is 62-38% men/women. Latina was the most searched for term, then MILF, then Asian.

Why am I discussing this?

This shows you that behaviors and tastes are not universal. What is consumed overseas is not the same as what is viewed here.

It also shows that a product is for more than one’s intended audience. As you can see, though porn seems to be male-driven, over a quarter of American viewers are women, and overseas it is more than a third.

So how does this translate into marketing your book?

Well, think of who your likely or intended reader is. What demographics do they check off, based on gender, age, race, faith, wealth, and location. What habits, interests, or needs are they likely to possess? You are looking to market, not to everyone, but to those who would likely be your potential consumer.

Fine, that makes a lot of sense. But now think of your secondary and tertiary markets. Just as pornhub mainly services men, there are still a lot of women who watch, too. So, with your book, even if you think 75 percent will be women or certain types of people, there is still a significant minority of others who could be your reader. Be sure to market to them as well.

America has 343 million citizens. Carve them up into groups and segregate into subsets of various types of readers. The nation is so big that you can target just one percent and potentially score several million book sales. Know who to market to — primary, secondary, and tertiary — and then pursue them.

Interview With The Biographer Of The Dead, Podcaster Dr. Joe Lex

 

1.       What is your book, All Bones Considered: 52 Laurel Hill Women, about? All Bones Considered: 52 Laurel Hill Women is a collection of short biographies about extraordinary women, from the colonial era to the present, who are buried at Laurel Hill East in Philadelphia and Laurel Hill West in Bala Cynwyd. Each chapter tells of a woman’s life, but also puts her within the broader history of the city and the nation. What did the world look like around her? What obstacles did she face? In many cases, why has her name faded from public memory? The book introduces you to Founding Mother Esther DeBerdt Reed; Anna Jarvis, founder of Mother’s Day; Sadie Tanner Mossell Alexander, the first Black woman in the United States to earn a PhD in economics; Mary Ann Lee, America’s first prima ballerina; Christine Wetherill Stevenson, founder of both Plays & Players Theatre in Philadelphia and the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. My goal is to introduce readers to women who deserve far more attention than they’ve received. I hope this book sparks curiosity and encourages deeper exploration.

 

2.       How did a retired medical doctor and university professor become a podcaster who focuses on retelling the stories of those buried in local cemeteries? After nearly five decades in emergency medicine beginning as a combat medic in Vietnam and retiring as a professor at Temple University, I left a career with only a vague idea of what would come next. That changed when I went on a guided tour of Laurel Hill Cemetery. It made me realize what I truly missed, even more than the patients, was the research and teaching that had always energized me. I took a course and became a cemetery tour guide. I soon discovered far too many fascinating stories to share during a single tour. So, I started a podcast, and then a second one, both dedicated to retelling the lives of those interred in local cemeteries. After a few years I had hundreds of scripts. Turning them into books seemed the logical next step. This journey from medicine to guided tours, to podcasting, and ultimately writing allowed me to continue exploring, teaching, and sharing remarkable stories in a new way.

 

3.       Why did you choose to focus your book only on women? That’s easy. Women’s stories are inherently more compelling because they have to be. In an era when a woman might find her name in print only at birth or marriage, it took exceptional determination for her to earn a doctorate in chemistry, author a renowned astronomy book, or drive a golf ball over 300 yards. Or even to write her own story. Men, especially wealthy white men, had countless career paths open to them – business, politics, medicine, law. Women often had to forge their own unique futures. Their journeys were rarely traditional, as they are the ones who began the traditions. Sometimes their creativity just to survive was nothing short of extraordinary. That drive and ingenuity is what makes their narratives so fascinating and worthy of focus.

 

4.       You wrote that you hope others around the country would undertake similar projects, to go to their local historic cemetery and hear their stories of those who came before us. How should one go about doing just that? If you want to dig into local cemetery history, having unbridled passion for the topic definitely helps, not to mention lots of free time and a bit of spare cash for books and online references. Being a little obsessive doesn't hurt, either! Start by checking out any tours at your local historic cemetery; they're a great way to get your bearings. Next, chat up the old-timers in the cemetery office. Let them know what you're up to and ask for their stories-they usually have plenty, and might even share old archives or scrapbooks. Don't forget your local historical society and librarians; they're goldmines for information. Just be ready to run into dead ends. Seriously, I found about 75% of my first leads didn't pan out. Stick with it and keep asking questions!

 

5.       How did you go about selecting the women that you chose to write about? I went through the scripts from a hundred or so podcasts and found my favorite 52 women. I compared them alongside my favorite 52 men - who was more interesting? While the men included the expected authors, mayors, polar explorers, an Indian fighter or two, and a few scoundrels, the women's group stood out with individuals like a founder of her own religion, the inventor of signal flares, a Hollywood gossip columnist, and a Black Communist who meticulously videotaped everything on television for more than 30 years. There’s also been a recent trend in major publications like The New York Times and Times of London, to publish obituaries for influential women they previously overlooked.

 

6.       America is turning 250 years old this year and Philadelphia feels like its birthplace. Does your book not only reveal the history of a city but of a nation? I would certainly like to think so, but semiquincentennial visitors may feel otherwise. To be truthful, Laurel Hill is not the place to visit founding fathers and mothers, although we have a few including Charles Thomson, Joseph & Esther Read, and Declaration signer Thomas McKean. Old City, especially Christ Church burial ground, is where hundreds of thousands of tourists will get their Philadelphia graveyard encounter and drop a now-obsolete penny on Ben Franklin's grave, ironically across the street from the US Mint, which they should also visit. But if you want the history of Philadelphia from the mid-19th century onward, this would be a pretty good place to start.

 

7.       Laurel Hill East was one of the nation’s first garden cemeteries when it opened in 1836. The population of the cemetery is a small city – 75,000 – and includes 33,000 monuments. How does it differ from Laurel Hill West? They were founded by the same man - John Jay Smith - a third of a century apart. Both sit high above the Schuylkill River, as Smith was somewhat of an aquaphobe. They are across the river from one another in separate cities and counties. Laurel Hill West has about 300 family mausoleums, several decorated with stained glass from the Louis Comfort Tiffany studios. While there are military men in both cemeteries, East has a preponderance of Civil War veterans, while West has a lot more Great War veterans. East is squeezed into 78 acres and is almost completely full, while West has lots of open space and a park-like feel. One major issue with West is inadequate public transportation, although there is a rail-to-trail public entrance, and a segment of road through the cemetery connects Montgomery County with Philadelphia County.

 

8.       Most people are concerned about what their legacy will be, and of what others will say about them if their name is even spoken of at all. Are you obsessed about what your tombstone will say? The opposite. I am a retired physician who learned anatomy on the body of a volunteer. The least I can do is return the favor. First dibs go to any salvageable organs, and then for teaching purposes, even if that involves a body farm. If there are cremains, a mulch pile will do. My legacy is a national teaching award named for me and the hundreds if not thousands of people around the world that I helped teach the art and science of emergency medicine. Plus, a podcast that’s been downloaded more than 85,000 times. But if I had an inscription, it would be a combination of two that I have seen, both at Laurel Hill West. Abram Winegardner Harris has on his stone simply “Scholar – Teacher – Leader – Friend” and lawyer / legal scholar Henry Sandwith Drinker has a line from Shakespeare: “The day shall not be up so soon as I / To try the fair adventure of tomorrow.”

 

9.       Is it hard to put each woman’s life into perspective, given they each lived during such different eras, when society’s laws, mores, and habits varied greatly from each other? Definitely. It's a real eye-opener. When I dive into the rhythms of life from another time, I realize just how unfamiliar and complicated things were for these women. Just picture the sights, sounds, and smells at 4th and Chestnut back in the late 1800s. Think about Martha Coston, just 21 years old, suddenly a widow with four kids and no safety net in 1847. Everything about daily life, what people wore, how they worked, who got to tell the stories, was shaped by rules and customs totally different from what we know now. I get that there are things I'll never fully understand, especially since I've grown up in a completely different world. Even so, trying to fill in those blanks and imagine life from their point of view helps me connect with their stories, even if I'll never have all the answers.

 

10.   Some of your stories share lessons and transmit values. What life advice can we obtain from the dead? Let me borrow a trick from the historians for this one. They’re the folks who remind us that those who’ve passed aren’t just footnotes. They’re still part of our story. When we look at their diaries, letters, old keepsakes, and records, we get a peek into what mattered to them, what they struggled with, and what dreams they chased. Sometimes, their stories warn us what not to do; other times, they light the way forward. We pick up humility from lost fortunes, courage from people who stood up for what’s right, and learn about the cost of intolerance from the tragedies we all remember. By checking out how past generations faced tough times and searched for meaning, historians help us see our own decisions as pieces of a bigger picture, and they nudge us to be thoughtful, kind, and remember we’re all in this together.

 

About The Author: Joe Lex retired in 2016 after 45+ years in emergency medicine which he started as a combat medic in Viet Nam and ended as a professor of Emergency Medicine at Temple University in Philadelphia. When he took a tour of the historic Laurel Hill Cemetery, founded in 1836, he realized that the role of a cemetery docent seemed to suit his personality. After a year or so of giving tours, he decided that both cemeteries, East and West, really needed a podcast to talk about their amazing inhabitants. The result was "All Bones Considered: Laurel Hill Stories", followed a couple of years later by "Biographical Bytes from Bala: Laurel Hill West Stories." For seven years he was the producer, researcher, and announcer for a weekly radio show on WPPM- Philadelphia.  One of his podcasts is now ranked the Number 1 Philadelphia History Podcast: https://podcast.feedspot.com/philadelphia_history_podcasts/.
