I referred Gartland to a publisher.
Gartland didn't get the job.
So he started blaming the editor.
'I even sent them in a clipping of a poem I had published in the University paper.'
But that was an old clip, I said, dating back to 1968.
I told him the publisher 'wanted a recent article showing that you have experience in business English writing and editing.'
The publisher had to block the cunt and threatened to expose him online if he kept on pestering him for the job.
Gartland was rightly disappointed.
He was only seeing the dollar signs, another grand in US dollars on top of his pension.
'I could fuck a lot of whores with that,' he told me.
I see Gartland hasn't lost the art of groveling and trawling. Watch him here try and secure another editing gig from me. Please, try not to laugh. It shows his dogged approach to securing a job that's obvious he is unfit for:
Hey, XXX, glad you jumped back into the frying pan lol.
Honestly, I don't know anyone who is as good an editor as me.
I'm not sure what exactly you're getting at, but I'm sure you know my work went far further than a spellcheck!
The book was unfinished before, still evolving, kind of boiling out of your life crises.
If the offer to edit the Diaries now, for $500, stands, you're on.
The cash would be welcome right now, but more important for you is the fact that I'd enjoy doing it.
Some editing jobs I've done have been just that, a chore.
I'm writing pieces intermittently, but I've plenty of time to get into it now, if it's finished.
Hey, though, good luck with finding a better editor than me..
You won't; even if you hook a name.
Assuming it wasn't b.s. .....
if your sense exceeds ego you'd do all your books a favour.
I'm the best of the pack, and that's a fact.
and I don't have to crow about it,
I know it. No trawling; if the truth's uncomfortable, that's not my problem.
You need my talents more than I need the money.
That was my last word on it, fat boy 5555555555
Out of total frustration, I told him to stop trawling, 'before I expose your skullduggery on the internet.'
