Sean Gibson:
How do you deal with all of the female adulation? As a famous author, you must have women throwing their panties at you whilst you walk down the street. Do you ever feel frightened?
Sean Gibson
Anne, people think it's great living the glamorous life of a bestselling* author, but they don't know about the health hazards that are involved.
Flung Undergarment Concussion Syndrome is no laughing matter. I've gotten FUCS from so many women, I've lost count. Heck, I've even gotten FUCS from some random men, right in the middle of a crowded open-air mall. Sometimes FUCS is over before you even realize it's begun, but sometimes FUCS can go on for days on end. If people knew how often I got FUCS because of my prodigious vocabulary and linguistic prowess...well, they probably wouldn't covet my life as much as they seem to.
I think I'm going to start wearing a helmet when I'm out in public. Or, at least a raincoat. Because you want to try to protect yourself from FUCS.
Please pray for me.
*I'm fairly certain I've sold more books than any other author named Sean B. Gibson who has penned a book with "Heloise" in the title.
