Questions I Often Ask Myself

chestercheetahSo, I am not so crazy as to think that you guys have actual questions for me. In fact, I am a little scared to even ask you if you do because I am worried that no one will come to my question party and I will be left holding a big bag of chee-tos. (That would be bad… I really like chee-tos.)

So, instead I decided I would just ask myself some questions, and then answer them.

Question Asking Me (From here, out this me will be known as QAM): Is that weird?

Question Answering Me (From here out, this me will be known as QAM–crap I just used that didn’t I–how about QANSM): No, not at all. I think that shows moxy and gusto.

QAM: Let’s just get this out of the way, your mom many people are dying to know how the book is going. So, how’s Sketch?

QANSM: Sketch is good! Really good actually. I’ve been working with  (My agent needs a snappy nickname–remind me to cover this in a later post) to make it the best darn book it can possibly be before we start submitting it to publishers. She’s been quite helpful so far, and I think her input is vital to the Making Sketch Even More Fabulous process. I can’t wait for everyone to read it!

QAM: Okay, now that we’ve got that out of the way… We’re dying to know–Pedicures or Manicures?

QANSM: Oh, good question QAM. I am a total pedicure girl. I love them so much. If you are ever in need of some sort of present for me, put down that scented candle and head to the nail store next door. I totally want a gift certificate from there.

QAM: I noticed you just reached your 20,000th tweet on twitter. Um, Congratulations?

QANSM: Yeah, that just happened to me. I’ve posted over TWENTY THOUSAND random pieces of information out there for the interwebz to read. It actually makes me a little uncomfortable to know I’ve used it that much. I feel like I should go all Miley Cyrus and delete my twitter account, but then I’d have to rap about it.

QAM: You’re moving, revising your book, and you have a four year old–how are you not crawled up in a little ball on the couch sucking your thumb?

QANSM: (Uncurls from her couch ball and pulls her thumb out of her mouth) What? Are you still talking to me?

QAM: Well, it looks like today’s interview is finished. (Pats QANSM on the head and gives her a sip of cool water)

But if you the blog readers have ACTUAL questions for me, I’d love to answer them. So, please leave your questions in the comments below.

You can ask about anything you’ve ever wanted to ask. (But I will only answer the questions that are awesome–so keep that in mind.)

  1. I second the others who say they want to read your book. Hear hear!! I think I missed what “Sketch” is about. Can you give us a short synopsis?

  2. What would your most important piece of advice be for other writers trying to find agents?

  3. Hmm… My questions:
    1. What has the easiest part of this process been, so far? The hardest?

    2. What surprised you most about Sketch? Did it take on a life of it’s own and go in directions you weren’t expecting?

    3. Will your agent read my manuscript? (Just kidding with that one. 😉 )

  4. I absolutely cannot wait to read your book, if it is as witty as you are! 🙂 My question revolves around wanting to know more about your author/agent relationship – especially since you said yall are both working to get the book into its best form. Does she help edit and such? Very curious about this…

  5. Do you find yourself hitting a wall midway through a project? How do you make it to the end?

    Two questions, I know. I can answer one in return if necessary. 🙂

  6. Um…what’s up? I guess that’s not that awesome. How about, okay, how many licks DOES it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop? That, and what’s SKETCH about?

  7. So, what’s your fave genre to read? Do you graze among a few or more or do you pretty much aim for a single one? Oops, that’s two questions. Greedy moi.

    Take care,
