| - The drapes company agreed that they would pay all of the expenses but in exchange, the book must be a catalog of bathroom drapes called "The Drapes of Bath." Also, it had to have some a lot of good crap in it about Drape-O. This totally deviated from the intent for the book, but John was kinda desperate so he agreed. And thus, a deal was made. The agreement went something like this: I, John Steinbeck, agree to have Drape-O drape company to pay all of the expenses to help publish The Grapes of Wrath II, but instead I agree to alter the book in the following ways: 1. I shall change the book's title to The Drapes of Bath. 2. I shall have the book's contents be a catalog for Drape-O quality Bathroom Drapes. 3. I shall pay royalties whenever I sell one copy of the book. The royalty shall be a payment of $150.00*. 4. If I fail to meet these agreements, I am subject to a lifetime in the Drape-O dungeon. >____________________________________________________________ *Royalty increase may happen if and when Drape-O decides to do so. John stupidly agreed because his lawyer was a spy working for Drape-O. Thus, a drape catalog was made! And they all sorta lived happily ever after.
