I only have my tongue halfway in my cheeks gentle readers!

Consider this: Clive Cussler likes dachshunds.

Dirk Pitt has red hair is very macho extremely self confident fearless bold likes to explore brave courageous fights again impossible odds winds against greater larger foes ...

Sounds kinda like a male dachshund?

Certainly he has many of the personality traits of dachshunds

Anyone know if Clive Cussler ever had a dachshund called Dirk or Pitt?

I do wonder sometimes?

Is it about " racism' ?
or it is about politics conspiracy?
or simply criminalism?
There should be something about it.
Any idea?
Thanks!

There was something disturbingly familiar about the character of Dolores Umbridge...shades of Hoover, McCarthy, Bryant...the whole putsch-conspiracy of denial originating at the Ministry of Magic in the face of a clear and present danger...Is JKR sending a message to the people and governments of the west with this story? What do you think?

soles of my feet press against the cold paved floor as i hurried through the corridors. they say lanterns dance amidst intervals of windows when seen from afar, and that the wind had a mind of its own, baring away curtains as a protest from us strangers. squeaks and screeches follow me. I made my way down the staircase with a candelabrum in my hand and upon reaching the last step, i trembled, as a gush of cold air brushed upon my neck. i quickly glanced behind me, and saw no one. i then looked up and saw the chandelier swaying eerily from side to side... and yet the windows were shut tight.

The book is a detective story narrated by the detective. It seems as if the police will never find the person who commits the crime, but at the end the detective reveals that he is the killer and walks away scot-free. Thanks for any answers!

I gonna be honest, if I have to read over my stories over more time. My friggin' eyes are fall out! I've read them over 100x now. I'm probably still missing spelling and grammar errors. But I can't tell.(Their Short Stories) Another problem I have is, I have multiple stories I could be working on at one time. 4 in all. Your own work becomes boring after your read it over so much times. And I'm dying to get them out there. Its about time! But I know I'm nowhere NEAR publishing status. . . I think.

Now I'm not trying to sound all bitc*y and whiney. I'm REALLY not! This is not a RANT. I just wanna know, if you're someone who writes, how do you or did you. Deal with this kind of stress?

Some can eat real food. Some can't drink blood. Is the author making up the rules as she goes along? How can anyone fall in love with someone (vampire) who drinks your blood, drains you and leaves you for dead? Is it me or was this story just too, too far out!

I would have to say Die Hard was better than the book it was based on since no one gives a crap about it,

and Blade Runner was better than electric sheep to me, what else?
