a day in the life...

*Writer looks at manuscript*
*manuscript looks back, innocently enough that Writer is immediately Suspicious*
"You're not done, are you?"
"You've gone through me twice, and so has your editor. How can I not be done?"
"Right. when you take that reasonable tone, I know something's still wrong. Hop back on the desk, you."
*Manuscript mutters, but does as ordered.* "Hey! Warm that pencil up before you touch me with it, willya?"
"Bitch, bitch, bitch. All you do is lay there, I'm the one who does all the work..."

That is remarkably what is happening to me right now. It could be those damn last minute edits my Ace editor asked for before it goes to copyedit tho... if they hadn't flashed me my shiny cover for book two lately, I might let it all slide, but now I gotz to make the damn werdz add up to the shiny of the cover!

If it keeps on being mouthy you might want to take it out for a trot around the block...

considering yesterday's weather, it would have been more of a swim around the block....

You know you could always offer it pretty flower stickers or lovely highlighter colors to dress up in if it will behave. ;-)
