I too have a huge crush on Audrey. She was fabulous.
The best way to get through the writing-problems you mentioned is to write it anyway. You're not going to be Tolstoi the first time out. Even Tolstoi wasn't Tolstoi his first time. Or second, or third etc etc. I've been writing for almost...

Let me first say that most critics don't know what they're talking about.
Secondly, you are 100% right, it'd be very bad to criticise kids or beginners in the way I did above. They're doing their best and any criticisms ought to be gentle enough not to hurt them. Two compliments for every...

Apparently somebody read it all the way through.
Yes. And before anybody gets their panties in a bunch about my reply to Firewater, I don't mind when people disagree with me. Greunie brought up a good point in that if a writer is just starting out it doesn't do at all to blast them. I'd never...

You're exactly right in that Roald Dahl is awesome.
But for the love of Mohammad (Ali, heheheh), I never said Roald Dahl was a bad writer. I said HP rips him off. Just like Interview rips off Picture.

I don't mean episodes 4, 5 & 6. Those are the old ones. 1, 2 and 3 are the lame-ass prequels. Actually, 4 is pretty boring and 6 can't stand alone because you have to see 4 and 5 to know what's happening. Don't get me wrong, 6 is not a bad movie. 5, "Return of the Jedi," is the best...

I want to read your Friday Night series... and will... but have to go read a long and involved mazelike interpretation of Heidegger. Pheh. I'm not in love with Heidegger. He's Husserl Part Two.
