In http://www.herald.com/content/archive/living/barry/1999/docs/aug13.htm
Dave Berry offers his version of the Street Performer Protocol. After
providing three rather abbreviated chapters of a new Harry Potter book,
he writes:

 That's all I've written so far. If you young readers would like me
 to finish this book, all I need is for two million of you to send me
 one dollar apiece. Or, if that sounds too greedy, I'd settle for just
 two of you sending me one million dollars apiece. The important thing
 is that we all work together to find a way for Uncle Dave to ''share
 the magic'' with you young readers. Because Uncle Dave loves you very
 much. He would hate to have to turn you into squid.

Well, it worked for Stephen King...
