  1. @jane_l MANSFIELD PARK WITH GRATUITOUS SEX SCENES ... we can have that book knocked out for you in, like 3 weeks.
  2. And this is "progress": "he percentage of kids walking or biking to school dropped from 41% in 1969 to 13% in 2001" http://bit.ly/5sHcVb
  3. @Fritinancy oh, the parodic possibilities for A Scent's doppelganger: "O Dour"
  4. @PDXsays I luurved Mickey, and his Mickey-cake! Much more than the rodential Mickey, that's for sure.
  5. Line edits are right up there on the keepsake-o-meter with "Shit I have shoveled." @VictoriaDahl @TessaDare
  6. Culinary quote of the morning from my son: "Where's the breakfast cake?"
  7. @heatherwpetty @bcmystery: "What do we have for entertainment? Cops kicking Gypsies on the pavement." The Clash - good to write conflict by
  8. @BostonBookGirl Is your poutine urge in any way inspired by Calvin Trillin?
  9. @VictoriaDahl My boys used to pull that ... I thought it was a bad precursor to getting my chest cracked for heart surgery.
  10. @maureenjohnson Giant cheese pizzas, or dysfunctional high-IQ societies?
  11. You can call it "lemon loaf," like it's some sort of breakfast food, but who are you kidding? It's CAKE.

  14. @jane_l Jane!! You left poor protag with his you-know-what ferociously gripped in her you-know-what. I'm feeling a little empathy for him
  15. @packratx There's a good discussion of word count on the guide to literary agents blog.
  16. @gxrobillard Touché. Also, you could argue it's just crap in utero (or something ... eww)
  17. @papertyger Well I'm starting. Had a piece in McSweeney's, but the Holy Grail (aka Shouts and Murmurs) still evades me.
  18. @rebobinar "Upper YA" sounds like real estate, doesn't it? #askagent
  19. @ColleenLindsay Hmm, how does someone writing humor/satire/fiction (with an excessive love of forward-slashes) build a platform? #askagent
  20. @papertyger Thanks mucho for the Scott Westerfield post. That's one of the few writing tips I actually *haven't* seen!
