So is there a reason you're trying to make book jokes funny?

[bests]

I need a book joke for this scene in my book. I must have written this part at three in the morning, because there's a line of dialogue that just says "-Insert literary joke here-."

[trickshot]

So you didn't actually finish it in 27 days.

[bests]

I finished the first draft int 27 days.

[trickshot]

Like that counts.

[bests]

It does.

[trickshot]

So if I say -insert novel here-, I just set a new record?

[bests]

Doing that for one line is different than doing it for an entire book.

[trickshot]

Seems like the same principle to me.

[bests]

It's not.

[trickshot]

You keep saying that, but not giving me any reason to believe it.

[bests]

I wrote the rest of the book. It's *one line* I didn't write. Saying it's the same principle completely negates all the blood, sweat and, well, not tears, but the effort that went into the rest of the book.

Alright, alright. Congrats for writing a book minus one line, Carol.

[bests]

Thank you.
