How about sitting at our computers writing emails and posting on forums?

I do think you are correct though Fool, for some music is definitely an opiate.

I mean highly narrative, because I find there is little show and all tell. The author is telling the story. Rules can be broken, but is is my understanding that the one 'divine' rule of writing is...

There are two first lines that stand out in my mind. One comes from a book that, oddly enough, I have never read, but it is famous:

Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two Cities, starts off, "It was the...

I read this story last weekend. As far as novels go, in my opinion, it breaks every rule of writing. It is all tell, highly narrative. It was, however, written in 1922. It...

Alright, I'm feeling terribly old here. I am a woman, not a girl. Sorry 'chicks' hehe. You are all women. I am 37.

Okay, I forget the exact stats, but bacteria multiply and grow, something like one million or one billion times every 15 minutes. That's multiplying and waste products, yuck. No wonder...

I greet the women I know, "hey chick", but I only hang out with 'cool chicks', not the catty, vile or vicious kind.

I can think of several names to call men, but they wouldn't be allowed here....

Yes. lol And sometimes I feel my tongue moving in my mouth as I am reading. I suppose it is feeling the words, savouring them, enjoying every morsel.

I read the first four, but found the Fiery Cross just more of the same. Happens sometimes with a series. They were terrific reading though. I highly recommend. Full of action, adventure, romance,...

That's a good opinion on that Sancho. A plausible explanation.

Life of Pi was an amazing story. I am rereading it now.

I agree Simon, I didn't really get the island scene. Does anyone have an opinion on this?

You're brilliant Den.

Here are two quotations from a famous author. Who do you think said them, and what do you think about them?

I tried system restore as far back as April 1. Don't know why I didn't think of it sooner. Seems to have corrected the problems. I am still going to figure out that spyware because it...

I love to write.

I also work and pay bills, work some more and pay more bills.

I am in the 30-39 age group.

I would like to take drama, but it isn't available where...

LOL AP, leave it up to you to make things complicated. :D

I think Canada's multiculturalism is what gives it's beauty and makes it unique. Canada'a culture is the multiculturalsim.

Since there is a Canadian thread, I thought I'd start one for all the other beautiful countries and cultures. I love to learn about cultures and other countries. Tell, if you like, something about...

Oh man, Kiwi, you guys get the worst weather out there. Also, I understand, it's a very beautiful place. I've been as far east as just inside the Quebec/Ontario border, and as far west as just insode...

I'm not sure VBM, seeing as I don't get the Miami Herald way up here in Canada, eh, but the story sure tickled my funny bone.
