Books & Authors - May 2007

I'm just asking for general opinions, things like "jumping straight into the action." or "taking time to explain characters/situations". Lots of opinions are welcome.

I don't know if the Jim Morrison biography I read was the most interesting, but, it certainly wasn't boring...

Mark never changes any of the words he writes. Whatever he writes first is what he presents to his
readers. Janet writes down sentences from books and presents them as if the words are her own.
Alan writes only when he is forced to write. He never finds an interest in the topic. Michelle interviews
her friends for information, writes down what she knows about her topic, and organizes the information.
She then writes a draft, which she revises several times.
Which person is using an effective writing process?
A. Mark C. Alan
B. Janet D. Michelle

I write great summaries but when it comes to the ending, I can't write at all. Does that mean I'm not really meant to write?

I have been trying writing short stories.One problem is that I don't know whether they are ok or not . I haven't asked anyone to read them and give me his opinion .Perhaps that's because I'm rather shy of being cricised and this might make stop passing my feelings and thoughts onto paper .

I liked The Taking and False Memory the best. Odd Thomas and Life Expectancy were good too.

I heard a rumor about a book that Joseph Smith wrote before his death where he declared that everything he said about the Mormon religion that he started was completely 100% a lie. A Farce. I would like to know for one. Is this rumor more than a rumor. If so what is the book? Where is it? Why is it not known?

In regards to publishing houses, does anyone know which book editors handle which subjects. I've checked out the writers market and other publications and although they tell the name of a publisher and what they handle, they never say which editor specifically handles a certain subject.
