Another Great Writing Book
Stephen King
I have many people ask me about tips on writing and tools to improve the craft. I have listed several before but I want to give you two that are a must. The Elements of Style by Strunk and White is a thin little book that packs a wallop. All professional writers have a copy of this long-time gem. The other is the fantastic On Writing by Stephen King. Mr. King cuts through the bullshit and gives you like it is. His words can be brutal but they're honest.
The Hills Have eyes
I rented this movie and it was gross, disturbing and yet I loved it. I must have some defect in my brain for I'm about to turn 40 yet I still love horror movies and juvenile humor. Burps, farts, the Three Stooges and Dumb and Dumber make me roar no matter how many times I hear them, see them, smell them or deliver them. Anyhow, if you like sick and gross movies than get this radioactive delight.
Why Am I Here?
Sometimes I wonder what the heck life is all about and why we're on this spinning chunk of rock? I'm not seeking a iconoclast figure, wearing a red robe, sitting on mountaintop, pretzel in a lotus position. It makes you wonder if we're in some ant farm of some alien child who's bored and ready to shake.
