I don't think they make a pink pump in a size 12. I gotta eat! :lol:

I have had that choice a few times, actually. Usually what I did: purchase book, then ask my mother if I can come over for dinner. :lol:
To the person below me: good one, Pendragon - a true question for bookworms, same question --

Same Q.
Sometimes, I don't mind being hungry but my mother hates it. This often happens to me that I don't eat breakfast, lunch or dinner but then she forcefully makes me eat it.
Same Question.
Book. I can skip meals at ease if I want to. One stops feeling hungry after a while...it's healthy to fast sometimes. (If only for the one meal :p)
Same question, it's a good one.
As I have said earlier I just cant go to bed hungry so I would buy the dinner.
Same ques.
Definitely the book.
Same Question
Back to me, huh? Despite my size, my appetite is surprisingly small, and I can skip meals without harm as long as I keep liquids in my body. Book every time, of course! :nod:
What makes you choose the book--a friend's recommendation or your own instinct?
Considering my friends' taste in reading. . . definitely my own instinct.
Great question Pen -
Soo, next poster, same questions
If the book is really this good, I've already read it!
What's for dinner?
I'd read and eat at the same time. ooohhh multitasking

Same ques.
Both, but, not to sound so boastful, I usually choose my own instinct of reading a book over my friends' or family's opinions, though I respect their taste. Hence, if I had money only to purchase one book, and had to choose between a book I wanted to read and a recommended book, I would buy the one I desired, and read the recommended one later. :)
To the person below me: since I think most people on here most likely write, if you earned immense amounts of publication of your work, would you discuss your own literature on this forum? :brow:
i'm not sure... but i know that my writing skills are not nearly good to even think about publishing.. so.. it most likely not posiable...
Same Question Por favor!
Actually, I can't write poetry or fiction worth beans (this is NOT false modesty here), so if by some miracle anything of mine were to get published, it would be lit crit.
If I WERE able to write poetry/regular prose. . . .no, I don't think so. In the first case, I wouldn't want to influence or limit other people's readings of my work. Second, mystery is a good thing. . . if a work is too transparent, or is made so by excessive authorial exegesis, it seems to lose its power.
If my crit were raised as a topic, I probably would discuss it, as the topic of the work itself would be the writing of some other author. I would not, however, post portions of my published criticism in individual author threads in order to get into a discussion on it, or to pass it off as sponatneous thought.
