| subject: | RE: [writing2] Making up stories . . . that`s FICTION, folks |
Y'all have probably heard about those lying journalist-posers, Jayson Blair and Stephen Glass. Now they're both publishing books (one a novel, one a tell-all) about their lies and probably making it onto the best-seller (ha) list. Hey, why didn't I think of making up great stories and getting on with the New York Times and so forth? Hmm, because I'm a plump white female not from the ghetto and yet not part of the old-boys network and couldn't get such a job? And then I'd be too scared to make up stuff, anyway. But this stinks, 'cause they're going to be rich and have their 15 more minutes of fame. Don't buy their books (check them out of libraries if you MUST, I suppose.) http://www2.observer.com/observer/pages/frontpage6.asp - - - The only thing that flies faster than an F-16 is your guardian angel - - - - Nine out of ten doctors recommend reading my books.
