    Means of production to the left, means of production to the right. All for the seizing.

    Hi,everyone

    I am beginning to wonder if you don't just want people Googling this person and spreading talk about them for some reason or other. I mean after all, the only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about, right?

    About Kim Sheridan

    Given that she neither prescribes to the works of Marx nor wears an 'I Love Trotsky' t-shirt that is not surprising...

    Is this the end for books?

    Thanks. I've popped Mr Reilly an email. Until then do you think you could tone down the party line a little, komrade.

    Is this the end for books?

    Sparkchaser, I am not sure I approve of such communist sentiment. Who do I need to complain to around here about the left-wing bias of this site?

    What would you assume Aliens to be like?

    I think aliens would be like Alf from the 1980s TV show. You know, like The Fonz, but from Mars...

    Focus all your efforts on finishing that. Just get it done. Whenever, whatever distractions stand in your way, dismiss them immediately and just finish the short story.

    Scribbles...

    Out of curiosity, do you have any completed pieces? Like a short story that's finished? Even if it's just a first draft. I think if you focus on one piece, and get it done - then perform some 'minor' tweaks, it might be better than churning out small paragraphs of text. However adept these...

    Scribbles...

    It seems too verbose and chunky in places. I get that you're trying to use a wide range of language, but sometimes keeping things simple makes for easier reading. For example, take the opening: The ship was ablaze and sinking fast. Orson had no choice but to jump into the water. The awkward...

    Suggestions: March 2012 BOTM - A book that was turned into a movie

    What do you use as a bookmark?

    I want to complain about the overt sexuality implied from this image. Not to mention the severe peanut smuggling occurring here. And this post from a moderator too. Jeez. This place is going to hell in a handbasket.
