She Thinks, He Thinks

Her: He’s hitting on me. What does it say about his expectations of relationships that I’m pushing a baby carriage, and that doesn’t spell MARRIED?

Him: She got knocked up once, she must be willing and able.

Her: On the other hand, it is kinda flattering. I guess despite that extra thirty pounds, I’m still hot!

Him: I like big butts, I can not lie.

Agent Publishes Through CreateSpace

Even agents are epublishing these days:

Agent Andrew Wylie shocked the literary world this summer when he made an Amazon exclusive deal on backlist titles from some very big name authors. Now Sharlene Martin, a Seattle-based literary agent, is following in Wylie’s footsteps with her agency Martin Literary Management.

Publishing Perspectives reports: “Martin’s agency published Cirque Du Salahi: Be Careful Who You Trust on September 15. It’s the story of Tareq and Michaele Salahi, who Martin represents along with the book’s author, investigative journalist Diane Dimond. Martin decided to get the book out quickly, short-circuiting the normal one — year publishing process, by publishing it through Amazon.com’s CreateSpace program.”
