Description
This Fuck is for you… and you… and especially for you…
Let me share with you the colorful and entertaining history of the word “Fuck†according to John Franklin—that would be me, a descendant of Benjamin Franklin. Yes, that Ben Franklin.
I explain how my 1972 filing for copyright protection was the first time the Library of Congress granted a copyright for an essay with the word "fuck" in the title. Throughout the 1970s and into the early ‘80s, “The Immortalization of Fuck†was one of the most popular X-rated essays.
My profiting from legally selling fucks was the direct result of a gentlemen’s wager tossed out by a colleague as a unique, creative marketing challenge. My masterful solution came with the recalled quote by Ben Franklin, “Of two things you can be certain; death and taxes.†Frankly Ben overlooked the ongoing certainty of folks’ eternal interest in fucks and fucking—as connecting fuckers and fuckees merrily makes the world go around.
In addition to explaining the ramifications of the wager, the Fuck Redux ebook includes several humorous spinoff stories revolving around this interesting and versatile word—like successfully overcoming problems sending a Western Union telegram to a mainstream publisher, and the nasty phone call from my father upon his discovery of the F-word essay. And then there was the brazen foxy cowgirl who boldly asked me for a fuck.
The ebook second edition is approximately 16,000 words all about the fabulous word “Fuck†for a mere three bucks to download it—which is befitting because the original essays with 305 words sold for three bucks, or two fucks for five bucks. Indeed, a great deal in any decade!!!
Thanks for your fucking consideration of my shameless ebook pitch for, FUCK REDUX: The True Story about “The Immortalization of Fuck,†available for instant downloading and your reading enjoyment from the Amazon Kindle and the B&N Nook ebookstores.
Enjoy often… John
