1. The rewrite is rewrit. Do you think it's a problem if I send it to my agent like this?
2. Have you all been over to Deborah Freedman's blog, writes with pictures? Because you should go. Her picture book, Scribble (a story of two sisters and "scribbling rivalry") is awesome. I met Debbie last year at SCBWI-LA, fell in love with her, went to the illustrator portfolio exhibit, was absolutely bowled over by one portfolio in particular and, yup, turned out to be hers. And now her blog rocks too.
3. Mmm. Literary tattoos. Someday...

Oh, Scribble does look very cute!
dear j,
none of this is even remotely as cool as what *i'm* doing. nope. none of it. *i'm* writing about tuition policy and something called "human capital" ... you *wish* you had this gig!
(now excuse me while i neglect to count my blessings and fly into jealous rage.)
thorp
p.s. you do such good work. and so does the scribble lady. grrr.
Thorp, I am going to use "now excuse me while I neglect to count my blessings and fly into a rage" as my standard departure line from now on, I think, and call Debbie "the scribble lady." And you do good work too."
Corey, it is!
if you can send it in like that, then i should be able to find an agent with a scientific hole in the middle of mine.
scribble sounds great.
Aw, shucks, Jacqui.
But wait, those look like MY index cards. Are you sure that's YOUR rewrite?
I want to know what the cello has to do with Ant.
cath c, I get those holes. Like I write, "This is where something happens that makes it so..." and then there's no worldly event in existence that could do it. Sigh.
Yay for the scribble lady! But I have been looking at this so much this week that I'm not even sure those are index cards!
Amber, I KNEW someone would go all detective on the notes. You'll have to read the book. No really, I'll send it to you. Please? And could you also revise the ending and make it funny? Thanks. :)
I would be honored to read it, but I refuse to change anything about the ending. Muahaha.
