I finished the book I am the messenger. I'm just kinda confused on the guy who sent him the cards... Who is he and why did he send them. I just got really confused in the end. Other than that it is an AMAZING book. It makes you re-think your life and everyday actions.

In many paintngs, on the side of the paintings, are the painter's name, date, and a lot of iinformation. I noticed that a lot og these have the phrase "oil on canvas"
What does that mean exactly? Did the artist use oil pastels?

Basically, my question speaks for itself. I really want to be in a theatre performing. I mean, I love the thrill of the dancers etc, and I sing when I'm by myself, but I'm too shy to audition.

Hi, I'm a self-publishing writer; not very profitable, I know, but I love it! Just out of curiosity, if you enjoy writing, either as a career or a hobby, how prolific are you?
I completed a 61 chapter (844 page) novel in about a year and a half. I consider 400-600 words to be a satisfactory day's work, and it usually takes me three weeks to a month to finish a chapter, depending on how long it is. Is this faster or slower than average?
