so the guy in the webinar (not the one who commanded me to blog. the other guy.) said that if i write comedies, my queries should be funny, reflecting the comedy in the script. well, that's a problem for me. the comedy comes from the characters, and the characters that i like to write the most are, well, asses. so will that make me look like an ass in the query? probably. let's see. there's the racist who's mean to her kids. there's the ballplayer who can't ask a nun what time it is without swearing or asking her out. there are the high school kids who ... well they're high school kids, and i'm not sure i want to be compared to anyone within five years of high school.

and have you ever tried to be funny in a letter in which you're asking someone to buy something from you? there's a fine line between funny and annoying. hmm.

i'll be working late on this tonight. (again, this was in the boy's blog. curse you, blogspot, for your free services!)
