I mean that's maybe what she did. The moment is over by the time this comment reaches you, but take it as some sign from the universe, not a sign that someday an agent will be consoling you over rejection, just that someday it will you on the phone with your agent -- something good like that. :)Lori W.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15513938828806159874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9060010344115435519.post-81718114548179788712010-04-12T11:43:26.176-04:002010-04-12T11:43:26.176-04:00If she is conducting business on a bus, out in the...If she is conducting business on a bus, out in the open for everyone to hear, she deserves to get a laptop thrown at her!Kristanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9060010344115435519.post-90200468293490648992010-04-12T00:18:50.367-04:002010-04-12T00:18:50.367-04:00Hahaha!!!

Make some writerly, publishing jokes and conversation. Treat her like a real person. And be sure to get her name. Later, when you're ready to query you can mention the bus ride. If nothing else, I bet she'd request just to be polite :)MeganRebekahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03285116194891827858noreply@blogger.com
