Just saw one of Business Insider's articles about how much TV stars make per episode, not per season, but per single episode!

So, a million dollars club per episode includes a handful of the most popular stars from the Game of Thrones, and a few guys from the Bing Bang Theory. Two leading TWD actors who portray Rick and Daryl are at $650K. My personal favorite Kevin Spacey earns $500K per single episode of House of Cards. If you're asking me, he should make $1.5M at least, lol. And the list goes on and on.

They deserve it. Millions of people are watching them. At one point, I tried to do some math. How many years it would take me to write every single day, with no breaks, maybe even sleep, just to get anywhere close. Probably not in my lifetime. But, I don't feel bad about to tell you the truth. I wouldn't know what to do with all that money either way, lol.

There's one thing I should do, though. I should check how much the screenwriters are earning. When it comes to storytelling, I believe that my talent in undisputable, lol.

  • Thing is, marketin' relies on the glitziest proscenium arch out there.

    Curtains open, an' you got a show.

    Cos, hey — why you even in the theater?

    What prompted you to take a seat?

    An' when the lights dim, the curtains open, an' the narrative unfolds — where elseya gonna focus?

    Gotta figure a theater is a cool kinda stage for showin' stuff off.

    Gather your people, set up your props, let the story roll on out.

    I would wanna figure on creatin' a similar entrancin' spectacle when I am directin' words about the page.

    Jus' gotta watch for people sneakin' out for a pee before the interval, I guess.

    By my oratory, shalt thy bladder be numbed!

    Clench thy sphincter not, quit bein' bummed!
