Gorgeous, Erin.
These are stone killers, little man. They ain't cuddly like me.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. That's how I feel from reading that.
Thanks, Erin!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I love the alliteration of "one foot faltering".
The whole thing is lovely.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Teppy? New topic?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
My agent left my agency, and now I have a new agent. I'm freaking out a little (lot) about it. Mostly because I loved my agent not just as an agent but as a whole, loveable person.
Lost, now. The plan is to keep trudging through the manuscript, beefing things up, and such.
I think it'll be okay to talk to the editor as soon as the contract is signed by them, get a little more of a sense of what their ideas are.
Still, a bit lost.

Allyson, having just changed agents myself about two weeks ago, I can empathise. It's scary.
Did she leave to go to another agency? Was there a choice to stay with her or stick with the current agency?

She doesn't really know, deb. Just a big lifechange. She's going to the Bay Area to start anew, and said of course she'll be there for me, cheering and supporting. Love. Her.
I'm sure the new agent will be cool, but I can't shake the thought that I'm a burden who has been tossed upon her, whereas Kate wanted me.
I FEEL LIKE A FOSTER KID.

I know. Not a good feeling - but if Bay Area Bound Agent likes the new one, you should be just fine. And no, she's unlikely to see you as a burden. For one thing? Book's sold.
So, you're proven goods.

Always Anti-fascist!
You're not, although the picture of you holding books in a garbage bag? A little funny.

Somehow, it just seems right (to me, at least), that the 100th drabble topic is late. (Also -- 100! That's a LOT of good writing!)
Challenge #99 (the perfect vacation) is now closed.
Challenge #100 is: commemorating an event. (It just seemed to fit with reaching topic #100.)
