Question: Homer receives exciting news for the publisher!.!.!.!?
*****
Dear Homer,
We have evaluated your manuscript!. We
believe there is commercial viability in your
story and have decided to publish it in our
upcoming periodical; En Globus Cyclio, with
the following changes:
1!. Instead of trade relations causing the war, we
want a mad-naked woman to be kidnapped and
stolen across the Aegean, only to fall in love with her
captor!.
2!. During the war, we want Ulysses to build a giant
hollow horse, fill it with Kung Fu guys, then sneak it
into the city under the guise of a gift!.
We hope these adjustments meet with your approval!.
Sincerely,
Trojan Press!.

Dear Trojan Press,
I am fully aware of the commercial implications of your requests!. However, at this point, I have already been contacted by Cyclops Publishers!. Furthermore, Steven Spielberg and George Lucas are considering buying the rights of my manuscripts for a series of twelve movies (Odyssey - Episode 2 to 12, plus the prequel, Episode 1)!. You might want to reconsider, by Zeus!.
Yours faithfully,

Dear Sir or Madam:
I agree that Helen is much more interesting than any trade agreement could possibly be!. Could you also arrange for me to meet Siren!? We all love her songs!. As for the horse, I would suggest an elephant or a donkey!. Please let me know what you think!.
