So today, Darcy and I received what I think are the final, final line edits from our agent (!). No major changes, just a word/sentence here or there, a few add this, delete that sort of things.
However, our agent (!) saved this revision tracked version of Geek Girl’s Guide as:
Emergency Geek.doc
Now, she means this in the kindest, nicest, most positive way. Yes? Darcy maintains that it means the manuscript is so, so hot, not that it needs some serious mouth-to-mouth. Surely, that’s what it is.
Right?
Right.
Right.
Of course, right.
Relax.
You say its urgent
Make it fast, make it urgent
Do it quick, do it urgent
Gotta rush, make it urgent
Want it quick
Urgent, urgent, emergency
Urgent, urgent, emergency
Urgent, urgent, emergency
Urgent, urgent, emergency
So urgent, emergency
Emer… emer… emer…
Its urgent! -Foreigner circa 1981

Weren’t you an emergency geek for the Army? Sorry… couldn’t resist! 😉
