What's a glumfish? I'm reading Salman Rushdie's "Haroun and the Sea of Stories" and he describes the setting as a sea being filled with glumfish. Are they made up or actually real?

In my English class we read "The Taming of the Shrew". Now we are doing a project, we were assigned a character, and we have to deffend ourselves, saying why we shouldn't be tossed out of the hot-air ballon. I got stuck with Baptista, and I can't think of any good reasons why he should live. My grade depends on how good my argument is. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

I'm writing a book, and I need the name of a pirate ship. I'm looking for something mysterious and interesting, preferably with the words "rock" or something similar, or perhaps, a precious stone. It can not have those characteristics, though. (These are mean pirates, by the way)

And please give serious and original answers.

Thanks, love ya!!

So since there are no questions about any of my favorite books to answer, I thought I'd ask one. Who/What are your favorite characters/couples/scenes etc. etc. etc. Just tell me anything you want to say about it!

My favorite character is Ron. And my second fav is Hermione.
My favorite scene is the destruction of the locket.
My favorite couple is Ron and Hermione. Hands down.

I've wanted to be a writer for as long as I remember. I've read writing books, kept a journal on and off, collected notebooks and notebooks full of writing notes, writing practice, and so on, and I've worked on short stories--finished one but wasn't happy with it, so I've been "revising" it for about four years--written down ideas in the middle of the night and so on.

But I have yet to get any real writing done. I've had friends in the past tell me I wrote well, and my creative writing professors in college seemed to think I had potential. But other than that, I feel like a total fraud. I have a blog that no one ever reads (or at least, if they do, they don't comment on it like on other people's): it's reachingforourdreams.blogspot.com. And I can't even come up with topics to write, much less ones that people would find interesting. Does that mean I'm not a real writer? Because I can't imagine doing anything else with my life. Does anyone have these issues and any insights?

I'm a young writer who's strapped for cash so an agents out of the question. Also I'm not 100% shure that this is GREAT stuff, well I think it's pretty good and others have agreed but then again they could just be going along. I'd like to find someplace that I could send my book so that someone could look over it. Also I can't spend too much time with organising this transaction because I'm still in HS and have a very busy life. Anything anyone can give will make me a smarter person.
