I'm Finding That Success Is Way More

Writers Should Be Applauded For Their Ability To Make Things Up.

I've Always Been Religiously Inclined, But It Doesn't Come Up In Most Of My Books.

[e]verywhere I'm Looking At Kids, Adults Mostly Don't Seem To Like Them, Not Even The Parents Do. They Call The Kids Gorgeous And So Cute, They Make The Kids Do The Thing All Over Again So They Can Take A Photo, But They Don't Want To Actually Play With Them, They'd Rather Drink Coffee Talking To Other Adults. Sometimes There's A Small Kid Crying And The Ma Of It Doesn't Even Hear.

With A Time-based Medium Like Theater Or Film, You Can't Have The Audience Getting Restless In Their Seats. They're Stuck There On Their Bums; You Have To Pay Enormous Attention To Pace And You Can't Lose Your Way.
