The manuscript, it folds...

So I got hold of the post office where my manuscript is, directly. And I ask why it wasn't delivered. 'Oh,' the guy says, 'it won't fit in the box. It's only five by five.'

Uh?

I sort of had this theory that a publishing company who is expecting lots and lots of manuscripts would get a PO box in which said manuscripts will fit. This is logical, yes?

Right.

So I said to the guy, 'Go ahead and fold it.' And he says 'Okay, I can do that.'

So it's delivered. But I admit to a bit of a decrease in respect for my possible first publisher.
