Parting is such sweet sorrow
This one goes out to the one I've left behindBon voyage, Bad Company. May you arrive at my agent's in one piece, be copied half a dozen times by her assistant without your pages getting out of order, and travel on to editors across the great island of Manhattan, editors who will laugh with you, not at you. May they mud wrestle for the right to shower you with a big advance, minimal requests for changes, and a cover that doesn't feature a bare-chested guy under a full moon.
Another prop has occupied my time.
This one goes out to the one I love.
--R.E.M., "The One I Love"
And just because I turn my attention to another book, doesn't mean I don't love you best. MMMWAAAH!
