The Numbskull Brigade

The numbskull brigade was in town making us feel intimidated. Running over manuscripts over which we had been elated. Our tender feelings were hurt, they did not like our wording at all. And they were mean and blustery, and about sixteen hands tall. You make publishing impossible, we little writers screamed. They laughed at us and threw us into triple cake all creamed. We came out loving the frosting, which made us feel better. Here's our advice they said. Try first to write a letter.
