Upon realizing that literary agents are just regular people, my youngest daughter (8 years old) informed me she thought agents dressed in all black, like ninjas, and hid in the shadows, waiting to attack publishers who won't give their people book deals.
I seriously don't know where she comes up with this stuff.
So funny! LOL
ReplyDeleteOooh, that's so cute!
ReplyDeleteI have to remember that they are people, too as well. Very funny picture :)
ReplyDeleteThats funny. I've seen the picture before, but it always makes me wonder what happened next. Did the girl notice her drink was gone? Did the boyfriend notice some dude has his head next to the guy's butt? Did he pound him into glue? There's a story in there somewhere.
ReplyDeleteYou mean they're not? *sighs with relief and stops looking nervously about*
ReplyDeleteI think I laughed about this the first time I read it. Very funny!
ReplyDeleteHaha! I can *so* see it!
ReplyDeleteBut it's true! It's true!
ReplyDeleteHehehe. :)
hilarious! So if you aren't getting what you need published I assume they just drop kick the publishing company???
ReplyDeleteFor some reason I picture Jackie Chan on a rooftop...sneaking into Little, Brown or Penguin....

Where's my ninja, darn it?!
ReplyDeleteI'm in serious need of some red-pen-fu.
I think she may be right. :)
ReplyDeleteHa ha ha. Sure, you don't. LOL! :-)
ReplyDeleteI still think they are ninjas just not all the time.
ReplyDeleteThe picture and the story are so hilarious!
ReplyDeleteWait... they don't?? LOL!
ReplyDeleteLOL. What a cutie! It would be fun to see an agent dress up like a ninja.
ReplyDeleteLOL -- I think she's right...
ReplyDeleteThis is still funny. (And still true.)
ReplyDeleteVery smart girl! I'm so glad I found your blog. Thanks for the chuckle.
ReplyDeleteThat picture cracks me up. I haven't seen it before - thanks for sharing!
