An agent liked my pitch enough to tweet about it. What if she reads my manuscript and says I should stick with pitching? And she typically takes 4-8 weeks to decide. If she is reading this, which I promise you, she’s not, I would like to say, “I’ll change my main character to a zombie podiatrist and the location to Dusseldorf if you want. Have weekly meetings with you in Chicago.** I will not offer bribes, of course. That would be unethical***”

Meantime, anybody have a Kit Kat?

*to clarify, I’m also eating M&M cookies. So far I haven’t hit the potato chips.

**Not exactly a sacrifice unless they’re scheduled in February.

***Also, I don’t have any money.
