As a former literature major, I'm embarrassed to say that I've forgotten what this is called but I am looking for what you call that little quoted fragment which is in many books just before the start.

What is it like? Does the person on the audiobook do voices according to the character? Or do they have different people "act" it out?

I have sent out a synopsis or ten, literary agents tell me that they have not got the time to read anything. "500 books a week come to this office," said one of them. Can one show chapters on the internet? One of my novels would be a great hit with younger readers 10 to 17 year olds, I know this because i let some kids read it and they begged for more. I've written 4 books and given up, both writing and sending them off to agents that kindly recycle them. I do need an editor, maybe even a co-author. My book about wife swapping is filled with secrets and agony and laughter and surprises, It's also a true story. Another is about the life of a little Bangkok prostitute, it shows why some Thai girls have little other choices, a sort of birth to now, a look at a typical bar girls world. I have put some on disc, but i keep going back and changing stuff, I supose a book is never really finished. What i need is a nice intelligent person to mark my work and even make suggestions, an old teacher

Is there a difference between a Bachelor of Arts in Creative Writing and a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Creative Writing? Does it really matter which one you graduate with?

Im drowning and i cant get back up

Ive fallen so low

So very deep in love

He thought my heart could tuff out his games

but i knew it couldn't

Now im drowning in every pains

I weint into the depths of love

once it betrayed me,

I couldn't get back and above

NOw i know love isn't sweet... Nothing like a box of chocolates

Cuz my heart was beat

He made me realize what guys are about

.... sex

And tearing your heart out.......

Ive fallen apart

And i can't help myself

Seems like theres no end, or even a place to start

I need someone to help

But how can they if i cant help myself

Love is;hopless,pointles,heartless,meaningless
