Protagonists For Sale

Recommend

What would you say about your fellow Protagonists? If you had to sell them, how would you persuade somebody to buy them, and how much would you charge?

Note: I am against slavery and trafficking in all its forms and campaign to stop it, but this is just a bit of fun :) Many thanks to Alli for the idea ...

Rules
1) Post a comment naming your bid; highest bidder after 7 days wins!
2) Buyer must tell Protagonist that they have been sold to them.
3) You can't physically make them your slaves .. sorry, that's illegal.
4) However, they have to write at least three chapters*** in a collaborative story of the buyer's choice! (Or something similar such as reading an extremely long story by the author etc. *Del thinks of LORD....*)
5) Make sure the person knows they're up on this page!!
6) Let me know who is sold to who so I can update the guidance...

FAQ

What would be a good thing to bid? I haven't got anything!
Don't worry, I sympathise. How about offering to dedicate your first novel to them? Or advertising their work among your non-Protagonize friends, so that they get more readers?

It doesn't have to be a physical object. Promises work just as well!!

Who can I 'sell'?
Anyone ... within reason. I.E they have to be on Protagonize and it's better if they're a friend - someone you've collaborated with often. Otherwise things might get awkward.

Also, you can only sell them once at a time! After they've been sold they get a month where it's against the rules to sell them, because that's not fair. Then you can advertise them again. :)
