I really do not understand what the meaning of it is. I am reading The Catcher in the Rye and one of the requirements is to find stream-of-consciousness. Can a whole book be written in a stream-of-consciousness?

What is the proper manuscript format for a fantasy novel? I searched thruogh many websites but each one's guidelines are different, so I'm not quite sure which I should use.

I know the chances of anyone answering this question might be slim...maybe even zero -- but If any of you were in your prime during that era, and partook in the great literary San Fransisco Renaissance of the 50s (City Lights Bookstore) or the great Greenwich village beat scene?

Please come forward ... and receive your laurels ...

I am 16 years old, male and have written a adventure/fiction novel. The book is at least 350 pages using normal size and have done, what seems like 150 revisions. My question is since I am young, will publishers not look at my work due to age? What are good publishers for my genre?

Well i heard from a friend that JK Rowling is going to make another Harry Potter book, but this one is going to be what happens AFTER voldemort dies and what Harry and Ginny and Ron and Hermione do for a living and follow their kids at school or something like that. I think it would be interesting to see but i want to hear if you think she is and what it might be about...or if she should make one =]

Apart from Harry, Ron and Hermione, who was your favourite character and what did you like best about them?

I love Sirius, apart from the fact he was played by Gary Oldman in the movies, he was Harry's Godfather. I was devastated when he died, because Harry didn't get a chance to know him properly or get to live with him happy ever after.

So let me know what you think folks. Thanx.

yet another lotr question for you all haha i love it. I was thinking about in the Return of the King when Aragorn, Gimli, and Legolas go to the door under the mountain (the Dim Mat?) and its like this place where a bunch of men from the second age fled so Isildur cursed them. Well anyways i noticed that Legolas read the inscription on the door and it says the way is shut it is made by those who are dead or something then when they head into this place the movies description shows off to the left a giant cathedral door and a bunch of other smaller doors then to the right is a large pit and the wall. What do you think that inscription means the way is shut if there is physical rooms and stuff you could traverse? Or is the book painting a different picture on this part that i noticed in the movie?

Just wondering why does Voldemort look so scary and snake-like? Isn't it that during his times at Hogwarts, they say that he was good-looking? What happened to him now? Is it because he got blasted when his cursed got backfired and lost his body?
