James writes: yeah, i think this qualifies as a "wild" request. have you been drinking? smoking crack? do you need further therapy? jewish journalism? i know something about this? (that last question was rhetorical and sarcastic.) is this request spawned by your self-destructive nature? is this topic of any interest
to me? gee, i don't know. I'm not even sure what the topic is? jewish journalism? it's a topic? i figured jewish journalism might HAVE topics: you know, stuff
like did the jews really wander the desert for thirty years, did moses really part the red sea, or isn't it about time jews start eating pork? (it's safe to eat
it now, ya know... ya don't even have to overcook it anymore.)
Chaim Amalek writes: As a writer, are you ashamed at all of using such a publisher, or do you follow the teachings of the rabbenim, who routinely make use of such services to hawk their wares? Do you feel that Cathy Seipp does not respect you as much as she otherwise would had you convinced a regular publisher to publish your works on their nickel? What was the point of writing books like that? Why, for real and just between us, are you spending time writing that book on jewish journalism? What's the plan, Luke, what's the plan?
Tick tock, tick tock.....

To begin with, you need to start sending email out to every working journalist in America, beginning with the words "Are you Jewish? I'm making a list and checking it twice."
