by The word back from my agent about the first draft is fantastic. Of course it’s a first draft, and she has suggestions, but overall she thinks it’s great, and my editor will love it. I’ll be working from now until I hand it in to my editor on Monday. I want to implement a few of the suggestions my agent made.
Here’s a Buddy Extreme Close-Up. I have a friend who says cats don’t have expressions! INSANE. Or did she say we just don’t know what they mean? That I would half agree with, except over time you do learn what each expression means — it’s no different than learning any other language. This one means, “I will not rip your face off if you pet me now.”
Congrats on the first draft. That must feel good. And I for one think you didn’t have to explain Buddy’s expression. It’s quite obvious.
Well, it’s nice to know some people can read animal expressions! What is wrong with those other people??
