Yeah, I finished the draft a few weeks ago. I’ve sent it out to a few agents so far. No bites yet, but I’m still hopeful!
What’s it about? Oh, right, that’s a very reasonable and understandable question to ask a friend who just finished writing a book. And since I guess my ideal outcome here would be for that book to get published and become a runaway success, providing me with plenty of opportunities to talk about it, summarizing the plot to you, one of my good friends who doesn’t write himself and is thus both not in any sort of unspoken competition with me in this field and unlikely to be particularly judgmental about the plot, should be an easy and enjoyable experience.
