Oh, e...*LULZ* I do love your perspective on this. <br /><br />Oh, everyone's gotten so snarky lately, I stopped reading the agent blogs and go look at pictures of pretty indie boys, instead. <br /><br />If the agents aren't making some wisecracks about looney authors (and yes, writers are looney, it's part of the package), then they're whining about getting rude emails from looney people (as if they didn't expect it, c'mon - writers live constantly in alternate universes, you expect consistant sanity?). Ironically enough, I've also noted that it's the least experienced and qualified agents doing this. <br /><br />Writers are either dripping green acid anonymously (or not so, in a very badly written blog piece with a lot of semi-colons (i.e. lots of semi-colons = "literary", you know)) or they're sucking up so hard, their entire heads have turned into black holes and can be used to navigate to distant galaxies. <br /><br />I'm just a lit journal editor, we don't make any money, so nobody cares. I've decided that I'm just going to read for my 'zine and write my little brains out and when I'm finished with each piece, I might pay attention again. <br /><br />PS - Is that Bill Nighy? :)Sarah J.
