...And Mum came too. Eh hem. So what, I'm 19! Mrs Managing director said lots of people turn up with someone first time, even the full grown men. I'm a scaredy cat.
The place was lovely, everyone was really friendly and the room we had the meeting in was filled with books from their authors past and present. Mrs Children's agent, Mrs Assistant and Mrs Managing Director were all there.
In fact the only problem we had was initially getting in the door, as their buzzing through thing was being temperamental.
Anyway, they want me to make some changes, cut the word count, and they're 99% sure that they'll sign me! Halleluiah. I'm on such a high. They all really loved the book (look, I called it a book rather than a long story. I've been denying its book status for a long time. I'm just weird). I had ideas cooking all the way home on the train for the changes they suggested. I wasn't going to type any until tomorrow, but I couldn't resist.
As well as suggesting the changes they were pitching themselves to me and telling me about their reputation, their authors, what they'd do, etc. It was so exciting.
If I could I’d bounce of the walls. Instead I'll shut up now and pretend I'm mature.
Toodles for now,
