If this book gets picked up, we're using your comment as a blurb.<br /><br />DaNae--Nobody has ever mixed vampires, trampolines AND the Chinese Olympic gymnastics team. This could be the picture book of the decade. The CENTURY!<br /><br />Leea--You've got 1.1 billion dollars? Sweet!<br /><br />Abby--I hate to admit it, but I cornered the visiting editor at my first conference. I forced my whole packet on her (it had original art and everything in it) she was actually very nice about it all. Of course, she dismissed it and I felt stupid. But hey, live and learn. I once heard an editor say that they "felt like the turkey at a thanksgiving dinner." at writers' conferences.<br /><br />Edith--Yeah, I kinda would too. I've noticed that when the visiting editor speaks, half of the audience decides they'd rather be on that end of the publishing table. The Q & A session starts with manuscript submission talk, but ends with "How do I become an editor?"Nathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15405813853669674039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7622998981501193158.post-28816942239809025522010-02-09T09:30:46.275-07:002010-02-09T09:30:46.275-07:00I totally believe that ideas are out there swirlin...I totally believe that ideas are out there swirling around our heads and if you don't get the idea, someone else will.<br />I also liked the editorial vaporization.
