I have obnoxious motrin resistant cramps. I hate my novel all of a sudden. Please tell me this is hormonal and I will better tomorrow.

The liquor store across the street has a wide variety of nip bottles. Bailey's in my iced latte? Y/MFY?

I think I made one of the baristas read Twilight. Now we have proof that I am made of evil.

Having just read the first chapter, I can assure you it's entirely hormonal. Your novel is fantastic. Really, really strong work.

:D I think you're my favorite person in the world right now.

Aw! But seriously. It's very, very strong. You're just too close to it right now. Send more whenever you're ready. I can't wait to find out what happens next.

PS: Did you know I edited a metric shitload of both fantasy and YA in my illustrious 12+-year career as a copyeditor, and that your book, only one chapter in, kicks the ass of 98.7% of what I worked on, all books being pubbed by major trade houses?

PPS: Yes, I'm serious. This stuff's too important to me to exaggerate.

PPPS: So there.

OMG I think I may have just floated off my bed about six inches. I did not know you editing YA or fantasy, but I know you edited.

I read a lot of crappy ms's when I read the agency slush pile. I think I only read two OK books. And the short stories from your alma mater were much more fun to read! There was some really good stuff in that pile. No novels though. :/I think I told you agent visited MC's class and they all gave her stuff to read.
