Affiliate Marketing Secrets

Which story/plot do you feel fits my characters the best?
Characters:
Nathan Age: 20
Physical: 5’9″ lean, sculpted with a tattoo on his left arm/shoulder, dark brown hair, dark brown eyes, tanned
Info about him/back story: He was the bassist for a semi-successful metal band. They toured for 12 months after putting out an album. Their label dropped them due to lackluster sales. They finished their concert dates and then called it quits. He doesn’t know what to do with himself now, because that is all he ever wanted to do.
Joan Age: 18 (Nathan’s love interest in all of the stories)
Physical: 5’5″, sun streaked long brown hair, exotic brown eyes, curvy but toned build, golden complexion
Info about her: Dad was in a very successful band but he was killed in a car crash when she was 5. She inherited his love of music and plays both drums and guitar. She started an online clothing business with her two best friends a year ago, and it has been a modest success. They make their own designs and print them on everything – clothes, hats, bags, purses, etc. Very independent and doesn’t want her dad’s old friends to be the reason why she’s successful.
All story/plots take place after his band’s last concert.
Story/Plot #1
Nathan moves to town to stay with his aunt. Meets Joan at his new job working at a music store. He was always obsessed with making his music better, now he has learned just to enjoy music for it’s own sake. Plot: When his band gets back together, he has to make a decision. Does he give up the new life he has built for himself (which includes his relationship with Joan) or does he try to reach stardom one more time?
Story/Plot 2
Nathan comes back home – feels like a failure. His dad was very mad at him for going in the first place, and will not let up on him. He pressures Nathan to take more responsibility in the family business and go back to school. Plot: He reunites with his band, but this time Joan is their manager. Her online company designs and markets band merchandise and her connections to the music world from dead dad’s friends give them a much needed boost. His dad is really mad that he’s back to the same old loser lifestyle and not helping out with the family business like he should. They have a huge fight. The next day his dad has a massive heart attack and might not live. He feels a massive amount of guilt and feels like he has to choose between two paths. Does he go ahead and go through with the band, or does he give it all up to be there for his family?
Story/Plot 3
Nathan is looking for a new direction in his life. But while he figures that out he moves in with his best friend and band mate Caleb. While they were on the road, Caleb’s uncle died and left Caleb his house in his will. They finally go check it out (his family took care of it while he was on the road). Joan lives next door. Plot: They find a huge stash of money in a secret compartment in the bathroom cabinet. They don’t tell anyone and spend a chunk of it. The FBI shows up because the money was “marked” money from a bank robbery and think they stole it. They have to clear their name.
Story/Plot 4
Nathan’s mom has been in a coma for the last two years as a result of a car accident. Shortly after he gets back home, she dies. He was going through her papers to try and figure out what to do when he comes across a letter from his dad (who has never met). In the letter his dad was begging his mom to let him come to visit, before it was too late. Late for what? He tossed the letter aside – his dad never took an interest in him before, and he felt like it was too late for them to have a relationship now. As he gets closer to his 21 birthday, he starts having weird pains and cravings for meat.
Plot: He is a werepanther. Werepanthers don’t shift for the first time until the guys are 21 and the females are 18 (when they reach their maturity). His dad arrives before his shift and takes Nathan to his home. There are different clans and different types of weres. His dad’s clan is going through an uproar because the old clan leader died, and now the most powerful were is an 18 year old girl – Joan. Their culture dictates the most powerful were is the leader of the clan, but they rarely have clan leaders that are women. The culture also dictates when the clan leader is not mated, they have to have one or all of the unattached weres of the opposite sex will compete for them. And the next powerful were is a real bad guy, so she must pick someone before the clan erupts in violence.
Which do you think is best? Or if you didn’t like any of them, what changes do you suggest?

I got a letter in the mail from them tried to google the company but didnt find anything.

A library 15-20 minutes down the highway from us advertised a couple of storytimes this year. One toddler-friendly deal, parents stay, no registration; one for ages 4 and up, ‘parents are welcome to use this time to run errands,’ said the leaflet. Registration req’d, 45min, story, song, small craft.
I registered and brought my 4yo. A brisk lady was busy shooing the kids (3 others?) off into a separate room closed off from the rest of the library. We followed. I was asked to leave, without any lead-up or explanation or ‘Well, we don’t usually allow the parents to stay but you could take a seat there’ or anything, just: no parents.
I was not into leaving my kid with an unknown, unsupervised individual, and she had absolutely no interest in staying. We went home.
The room they’re using is a large rectangular thing with a rug &c at one end and a bunch of random chairs at the other; that parents couldn’t occupy the chairs and make sure their kids were happy and make sure the entertainment &c was something worth driving there for was, I thought, bizarre.
My instinct is to write a polite letter to the library telling them their policy is nutty. But. Is this at all common? Have you ever seen a library that kicks out the parents for a storytime? What would you say?
I don’t know how useful a letter might be as the beat-it-Mummy lady is the children’s librarian (!) and, I would assume, highly unlikely to renounce her storytime duties, and she was clearly not an empathetic caregiver of the sort I’m ever going to want to entertain my kid even if I’m ten feet away. OTOH our closer library, which is affiliated with this one, has a WONDERFUL storytime lady, and I almost want to say “Mrs Library #2 should consider attending storytime with Mrs Library #1 to see how it can work with parents in the room, etc” and generally hint that more training is req’d…

my mother had a colonoscopy and afterwards her doctor told her she needed surgery. she told my mom she should 1st get medically cleared by a doctor affiliated with that hospital she was going to have the surgery. so my mom found a doctor affiliated with that hospital and got checked up. she was fine to have the surgery. that doctor faxed over everything to the surgeon’s office. the surgeon called my mom and said she got the forms and she needs to just make an appointment with her receptionist in which she did. the receptionist called my mom regarding the appointment for her surgery. she got a letter today stating the time and what she needs to do. in that letter it said she needs to be medically cleared by the clinic in that hospital. the doctors office is closed right now so i will call tomorrow to ask, but i wanted to know now, if she needs TWO clearances. she got the 1st clearance about 3 weeks ago. is it just a mistake?

I am writing a letter (knowing this is a HUGE stretch) to the Ellen show asking to be on the 12-day giveaway show.
Here’s the deal. She is a syndicated program. I work for a CBS affiliate station (a news station that is a CBS affiliate), and we happen to carry the Ellen show in the afternoon.
Because I don’t work for her show, or any of the companies that gift to her show, etc. Do you think I would still be okay?
This is of course if hell freezes over, and I actually was granted a shot at being on. I just want to know that I’m not asking for something that is basically against the rules to begin with.
I checked the rules for 12-Days, and can’t find anything that stands out, but before I send my letter, I just thought I’d see what others think. Again, I know my chances are slim to none. But, there’s no point in sending the letter if I wouldn’t be able to attend at all b/c of qualifications.
Thanks!
