I took a selfie.
It is titled “Literary Agents Eat Alligators for Breakfast.”
Fact or fiction?

You claim on gators to have dined,
and that thought makes me curse;
I once had thought you so refined,
and you eat now someone’s future purse,
not to mention cowboy boots,
and hatbands in the making.
Clearly, you are in cahoots
with fell persons who feel taking
the future genesis of style
is worthy and correct.
Do you also lunch on crocodile,
and in doing so expect
that we’ll let you do just as you please
and munch on our accessories?
This made me laugh, Andrew! Thank you.
I’m so glad to give you a laugh, Susan!
Thank you so much for letting me know!
💯 can confirm.
Sorry, that one was in response to Steve’s post. Not sure why it shows up here. 😛
Love it! Well done!
Andrew, this is hysterical.
Alligator is actually pretty good eats. So whether or not agents eat alligators for breakfast is a personal choice.
Or, is it that publishers eat agents?
Maybe, agents eat writers?
Writers chew on each other?
So reassuring to those of us pitching to you at Realm Makers Conference this weekend. LOL Let the munching commence!
I think it’s called a “fictional fact” (or maybe I just made that up).
Love the expression in those eyes. They seem to say, “Don’t even try it.” Or, “This is mine, all mine.” Or, “Your point?” Confident and matter of fact.
I’m almost afraid to comment … but the picture did give me a laugh.
💯 can confirm.
