I know that I look at what everyone is saying and then synthesize all of the information into what is going on. I think that too often, writers jump on the bandwagon of one person and trust only their word.<BR/>Big mistake!Scott Eaganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17209357682070126879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1163829887162955058.post-40509940611205036752008-08-24T10:58:00.000-07:002008-08-24T10:58:00.000-07:00I was going to leave some kind of witty post, but ...I was going to leave some kind of witty post, but couldn't decide how. <BR/>Because I'm not witty, lol<BR/>So, I'm sorry you have to rant. I think people with certain levels of authority deal with this hero-worship alot.<BR/>I definitely look up to agents because I know the good ones are smart and business savvy. Maybe they'll open doors for me, maybe not. Either way, your opinion does carry more weight than the average person. You're a professional in the business I'm trying to break into.<BR/>You're kind of like a celebrity. <BR/>:-)<BR/>Hahaha, but I'll try not to swoon if I ever meet one of you walking down the halls of a conference.<BR/><BR/>As far as I know, only two men ever walked on water, and one of them ended up sinking.Jessica Nelsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12365768876905444157noreply@blogger.com
