> Who was it that said "Writing is easy. You just sit down and open a vein..." ?
>Sounds like Dorothy Parker who wrote some great though often bitter and vitrolic poetry and prose. One bio. on her was entitled: "What Fresh Hell is This". A literate alchoholic (like many writers of the past and proabably the present too) who was probably using that to partially mask her anxieties and depressions which certainly come through in some of her poems.
> How about you?I've a degree in PR aka strategic communications which involved learning to write and communicate in different styles and for different media. Occasionaly get paid for some but other than e-mail and a mediation I am working on don't do a lot these days...
Probably write a book or so, one of these days. I've done so aleady in the amount of e-mail and e-commentry I've posted, here and there...just need to package it all themetically, compellingly and coherently, some day...
For now though, sleep...
