Nananananananana BATMAN
So I met up with Batman today. He is exactly what I want in an editor... determined that he is right, full of random insights and tricks, and very, very detailed. The best part, though, is the sheer fact that I AM PAYING HIM.
I tend to take things a lot less personally when cash exchanges hands. Perhaps because I don't know him the way I know my friends, I'm less likely to take any comments as an indictment against my skills and abilities. Also, this guy KNOWS his shit. I investigated him, and he's really got a good handle on what he's talking about.
I call him Batman not just because I have cast him in the role of hero in my book's life, but also because of how he looks. He's got this very slick demeanor to him, and also a certain je ne sais quoi about him, that seems like he's leading some kind of double life. Plus, he looks sort of like a Bruce Wayne (without being ripped to hell or anything).
All in all, I left my manuscript with him, and once the contract is in hand, we are ready to rock and roll.
