Who Are The Writers?

more likely he beamed you through finnishing school. But most likely not, the enterprise concerns itself with the final frontier, not the finnish line
 
and beaming is quite a trick, even for a cheater, but the finnish doesn't jusify the means, nor the trek the trick
 
You know, if we could borrow the Tardis from the Doctor, it translates all languages into English English or is it Irish English (I think David Tennant is Irish) ... anyway, then we could take care of that Finnish issue.

I wonder if it would translate all my Elfish stuff too??

Oh, and just because that spray paint on the Taj Mahal IS in Elfish .... doesn't prove a thing!!!

Then spray painting the Taj Mahal may have been an elfless gesture.

Maybe you should spray paint a Seven Elven. They're missing an e.

But I think that store is already green ... hmmm.

Oh, and I was wrong; David Tennant is Scottish. I don't think I should spray paint the Tardis, it is, after all, a police box too.

Of course none of this means I admit to spray painting anything in the first place ....

you needn't admit to anything. I've solved the case. You were going out to paint the town green one night, and you unwittingly mistook your spray can as hair spray. It is your habit to carry both in your purse when painting the town green, and so you wouldn't notice the mistake until later. And although you dyed your hair to get the green out, I could see by your number of posts that you were still green behind the ears. So your pointy ears have politely pointed out your guilt, like a dark cloud that loomed over you. But I do not wish to flood the prisons, and so I will not turn you in.

HAIR SPRAY??? Elves NEVER use hair spray !!! Thanks for not turning me in, although I am not guilty of a thing. But human prisons don't hold elves very well anyway ...

Out of the BAR members, who are the writers? I'm interested in seeing who are the ones working on short stories, their novel perhaps. What sort of material are you writing? Fiction? Non fiction?

How do you rate your ability too? It's always interesting to see how people think about their work...

What an interesting series of questions, Stewart.

I'm a journalist, so have had a lot of work published over the years – sport (for which I have won an award) and numerous other genres, but particularly trade union-related work.

The reason that I mentioned the award is because it allows me to have some sort of a measurement about whether my journalistic work is any good or not. Presumably I'm not a complete waste of space.

I also write fiction – thus far, my published fiction has been erotica (okay, it's porn, but that's the polite term). I've had a story published in Forum, a British publication that concentrates on the kinky side of erotic life – I had met the editor and emailed her a story of mine for an opinion; she wrote back asking whether they could publish it (and pay me for that). There is also a collection of my short stories available in German (I can speak and write a little German, but the publisher had my work translated). It's been well received (we're on the second edition) and I've particularly been complimented on the writing, which chuffs me no end.

Once I'd been published in Forum, I embarked on writing 'the great English novel' – without sex, of course – but found myself stymied, so I returned to what, for some reason, I can do well.

I'm currently working on a sequel – one longer short story and a few short ones – for my publisher, plus a Rabelasian, picaresque novel that seems to be a case of magic realism, and is about religion and is full of plenty of perfectly pornographic sex.

Rabelasian and picaresque! :confused:

Ta, two new words - not sure when I will ever use them but what the heck.

Now I just have to worry about that "perfectly". As apposed to roughly por... ,er no, I don't think I'll go there.
