An ink drawing of a cartoon by Tom Gauld. Signed in pencil.A writer sits in her publisher's office and says:"I've got an idea for a story that examines multiple outcomes for each action."The publisher's three possible replies are depicted:1. I love it!2. Hmm. It might work.3. That sounds terrible.Depending on the publisher's reply, she leaves the room saying:I'll send you a draft in three months.orTo hell with you! I'll write it anyway.Both versions lead to an image captioned "Nine years later..." which shows the writer surrounded by notes and drafts, saying "Finished! Finally!" and this leads to images of the writer holding either:1. a rejection letter2. a sheaf of polite reviews3. a Nobel prizeAnd yet, inevitably all the possibilities land with the same image:The writer's gravestone lit by the moon.ALT
