I asked her who was in it and she told me. When I asked "who's Eddie Murphy?" the entire line of people stared at me as if I was from another planet. Fortunately (or not -- I sometimes think not) it's a lot easier to be culturally in tune now -- although I still resist it. I still don't know who the heck most of the people on the tabloid covers are.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00665632105920753931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27125272.post-23787212204338855742008-01-28T12:02:00.000-06:002008-01-28T12:02:00.000-06:00Aside from your very inspiring and informative wri...Aside from your very inspiring and informative writing, I have to say that the decorum of your blog is absolutely enchanting! <BR/>Cheers!<BR/> - JoJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00891051015220878965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27125272.post-47548127898669265112008-01-28T09:34:00.000-06:002008-01-28T09:34:00.000-06:00I played some of this stuff up when I tried to sel...I played some of this stuff up when I tried to sell "Cold in the Light" to the big publishers and/or to agents. 1), a biopsychologist writing about a biologically and psychologically complex non-human race, 2) a biopsychologist writing about psychological and physiological horror, 3) a widely published short story writer writing his first big novel, 4) Ozark mountain native woodsrunner writing about the Ozark mountains and the woods.<BR/><BR/>None of it worked.Charles Gramlichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02052592247572253641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27125272.post-85374413319206630452008-01-26T22:01:00.000-06:002008-01-26T22:01:00.000-06:00Great series of posts - really taking something th...Great series of posts - really taking something that is viewed here (not here Dubai but here in the market I know - UK) in a negative fashion and turning it to the positive.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02744937536946299450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27125272.post-40165668916486812922008-01-26T12:40:00.000-06:002008-01-26T12:40:00.000-06:00For me, St. Cyr's selling points are indeed the fa...For me, St. Cyr's selling points are indeed the fast pace, the suspense and the sexiness. <BR/><BR/>I do love the way you handle the history, but not because you're a historian; maybe in spite of it. I always fear academics will give me something dry and, well, academic. You have this rare ability to use the facts with command and restraint. It's fantastic.<BR/><BR/>Oh yeah, and loving the series of posts, too...Steve Malleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17561234111786788616noreply@blogger.com
