- Well Written Sentence Openers In Bret Easton Ellis' American Psycho
By: marciano guerrero | - What can one say about a fine writer -Bret Easton Ellis- who chooses a vicious and violent theme? To me it seems like a waste of talent. But to each his own! Why lament the fact that Flaubert -another superb writer- chose to write about infidelity, adultery, the provinces, and a dunce of a heroine? Yet the fact remains that while Madame Bovary is a masterpiece regardless of its theme, American Psycho is a minor work.
American Psycho is a scary book for whoever reads it, be the reade ...

- Books - The Better Form Of Entertainment
By: Garnet Valentine | - When is the last time you picked up a book and read? Before the great invention of the television, reading was one of the main sources of entertainment.

- Stephen Colbert Tickets - A Political Satirist On The Rise
By: Brent Warnken | - Rising star and political satirist Stephen Colbert is really just your average guy - he raises his family of four in New York's suburbia, earns mortgage payments through his day job, dons glasses and business suits and doesn't particularly stand out. Yet when his hours include being interviewed for Rolling Stone and 60 Minutes and making an introduction for former President George W. Bush at the 2006 White House Correspondents Dinner, clearly it makes him seem just a little less average and more ...

- Pennywise Band Members Still Rolling Strong
By: Jimmy Cox | - Clever Stephen King fans may well recognize that the clown in the novel, "It" is where the band members of Pennywise found their name. They formed the punk rock band back in 1988 and the name fit well and had a dark and sinister undertone at the same time. Somehow, this seems very apropos especially when considering the wild nature and offbeat humor exhibited by this group of performers.
In 1991, they released a debut album that was named for the group, and they released one album ...

- Writing A Novel For Publication - The Levels Of Professional Editing And The Role Of Each
By: Robert L. Bacon | - Since this article about the importance of professional editing is written by someone who edits text for a living, it would be quite easy to assume this information is self-serving. And while this would be justifiable, this writer can assure any skeptic that this is an honest treatment of what is necessary to have work considered by a bona fide royalty publisher.

- To Dazzle And Trap Your Reader Use Dazzling Sentence Openers
By: marciano guerrero | - Americans' speech, or to be more precise, speech habits that most use from cradle to grave, follow a strong pattern that often impedes them from writing well crafted sentences.
"Kay shaved her hair."
Subject (Kay), verb (shaved), and Object (her hair): S-V-O
When people write, they bring their speech habits into writing. That is why so much of the English newspaper articles, essays, journals, legal briefs, and fiction that we read today are so soporific, even thou ...

- Bram Stoker's Dracula - Why And How The Evil Fiend Scares Mortals
By: marciano guerrero | -
Having been engrossed in the reading of Stoker's novel, Dracula, when I looked at my watch, it was way past my bedtime (midnight); so I meandered to farthest bathroom at the end of our long hallway, since I didn't want to awaken Mary Patricia (my wife). Halfway there I was seized with a primal fear that froze me to the spot: I could swear the fiend Dracula --hidden in the shadows-- was welcoming me to his kingdom, fangs bared, blood dripping, arms outspread.

- To Self-publish, Or Not To Self-publish: That Is The Question
By: Dana Rongione | - One of the top questions in writing today is whether or not one should self-publish. Let's face it. Traditional Publishers receive hundreds of thousands of manuscripts each year, and only a small percentage of those make it into print. The rest are either thrown away or returned to the sender with a nice form rejection letter. For this reason, it makes sense for writers to explore the possibility of self-publication. That being said, let's weigh out the pros and cons.

- Resurrection Or Deception?
By: Jerry Richard Boone | - The story of Jesus' resurrection is a compelling one, but is it true? How can we in the twenty-first century account for this Gospel story?
Possible Explanations:
Mass Hallucinations
Could it have been a mass hallucination? That's not a likely answer. Too many people saw the resurrected Jesus over too long a period of time to dismiss it as a mass hallucination. Besides, hallucinations don't have physical bodies to touch, and they don't eat and ...

By: Mary E. Martin | - Frequently, I'm asked whether I know the whole story of a novel at the outset of writing it. The answer is a simple no.
I might have an idea of where I want a story to go, but often I'm surprised by the direction it may take, seemingly all on its own. How on earth does that happen?
First, let me say that I often make plot outlines and charts as I work, more to keep track of where I've been rather than where I'm going. It sounds a bit like backing into a story. W ...
