I like Meg's books (Boy Meets Girl, The Boy Next Door, Every Boy's Got One) a lot. I would like to read books with the seem feel, meaning written in e-mails and stuff with the romance and all. Any books like this?

I'm putting together an anthology of 15 or so stories and intend to publish it through the lulu.com system. As it's publish on demand there are no upfront costs and no guarantee it will make money but it will get your work published.
Interested?

I am writing a novel. Is is okay to write scenes from somewhere in the middle or end of the novel first, rather than start at the beginning, because I feel this will help me to get a better idea of how to start out and get to know my characters more.. So, is that okay, do you think?

"The Witness"
I can see his bullet
it's dark there's no one
Oh Lord i sit nearby you
Nearby

I want the strength to start again
it's alright to fail and fall
but to have never tried is the
closest i can say is sin

How many times must one be broken
before you can take your hands
and mold dust and bones

Breathe life back into this death
that i've become
body without soul
how long must i go

As the years fade
25 has passed and so has suicide

It appears that Miss Faithfull advirtised 'Mars' bars in the mid 1960's when she was the girlfreind of Mick Jagger. Apparently 'Mars' refused to pay her for her part in the in the advertising campaign even though Maryann bosted sales to an all time high, can anyone supply me with information on this? Did Maryann take 'Mars' to court? and is it true Mick also had somthing to do with the adverts success. It is unlike a pop star to do anything for nothing so whats the score?

From my understaning, pulitzer prize winning books win this award due to the fact that the story normally holds a moral or irony or life-lesson. I am currently reading The Killer Angels and am honestly stumped on what it is. I am normally one of the smarter english people I know, and can normally decifer things such as this quite easily. But this book has me beat lol. The only thing I could see that might be the moral, or the irony, or the overhanging subject that isn't directly stated is the fact that the generals in this story are fighting for their individual sides, and yet joined the military to protect the country as a whole, and they now fight their other countrymen in order to defend their rights and opinions. I'm not sure if that is it, but I'd love to know if it is or isn't, and if it isn't, someone please give me some input. I feel like I can't get it :/
