more quatrains

Texas Book Festival
Early morning
An excuse for breakfast tacos
Like I need one

Owen!
I got up early for you, dude!
Character-driven fiction
Apt as fuck

Got shut out of second panel discush
The work of angels
Ran into Jodi T. instead
Broken-elbowed Texas romance writer

(Jodi was my teacher at West Tejas Writey Camp in July and she's really lovely and warm, so I was glad of this turn of events.)

Jodi really sells herself
"I write Western romances! I've won many awards!"
She cries, unafraid, yet tempered with ladylike aplomb
Take heed, O Modest Maudit!

Advertisements For Myself!!
Can't do it
I shan't be a Behemoth
Without growing some goddamn balls

Speaking of:
totally bailed on Mrs. Behemoth
Tired, sleepy, hungry
The woman whose bid-ness I know shall remain a mystery

Marion! I followed you around
She offered to blurb my novel!
I have a blurb before I even have an agent!
Lucky lucky writer girl am I!!
