Hmm… never been accused of this before.<\/p>\n
The following is a response to some emails I wrote a couple weeks ago (with the subject lines “Creepy disturbing emails I get from people” and “How to profit from gut-wrenching despair”)…<\/p>\n
Mr. Ben Settle,<\/strong><\/p>\n
I’ve been reading your emails for awhile now and you are funny…lot’s of times biting… but the past 2 emails I see something different. You are a romantic. Yes, maybe you are. You will scoff at this I’m sure, maybe even make fun of me…but I like this side of you. It is nice to see behind the veil so to speak. Anyone who sends you mean or disturbing letters is crazy or a fool. Thanks for the inspiration you give to those of us who like to write.<\/strong><\/p>\n
Naomi Novella<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
“Novella”, eh?<\/p>\n
Lemme guess… you write fiction?<\/p>\n
Anyway, here’s the thing:<\/p>\n
Changing up the tones, themes, ideas and concepts of my emails are all part of the Settle way of writing emails. I’m all about giving someone a “surprise” each day — so you never know what you’re gonna get.<\/p>\n
In other words…<\/p>\n
Are you gonna get cool, laid back Ben?<\/p>\n
Asshole Ben (i.e. elbenbo)?<\/p>\n
Angry Ben?<\/p>\n
Calm Ben?<\/p>\n
Biting harsh Ben?<\/p>\n
Sweet Ben?<\/p>\n
Entertaining Ben?<\/p>\n
Just-the-facts Ben?<\/p>\n
Mockery Ben?<\/p>\n
Praise Ben?<\/p>\n
Arrogant Ben?<\/p>\n
Humble Ben? (There was a sighting of him once or twice…)<\/p>\n
Angel Ben?<\/p>\n
Devil Ben?<\/p>\n
What are you gonna get?<\/p>\n
You simply don’t know.<\/p>\n
Hey, I don’t even know until I set down to write!<\/p>\n
In fact — and I did not plan this, as I wrote the email that came out the next day the week prior (set to go out on a schedule) — the next email after the one Ms. Novella responded to was certainly not romantic Ben at all. Its subject line was “As if my ego wasn’t big enough already… ” and the next Monday I sent out an email about the backasswards things chicks say (Romantic Ben was nowhere to be found that day…)<\/p>\n
The point?<\/p>\n
I like to mix it up, baby.<\/p>\n
Keep things unpredictable.<\/p>\n
And, yes, profitable.<\/p>\n
