There’s absolutely no focus to this post

I was checking out Julie Gray’s blog this morning and had to laugh when I spotted her post entitled, “You Know How I Know You’re A Writer?”

She breaks us into different “types” of writers, of which she’s discovered from her extensive experience of being around and working with writers.  One such type is…

Your young, intellectual, articulate type who is maybe 28 but who seems 54. Well put together, very informed, a real expert on film and literature. Personal challenge: Needs to lighten up. Julie says: Live a little, kid. You have plenty of time to write. Work on your “voice.” 

Stalker?  I’m close to 28, a complete nerd when it comes to absorbing information, and I definitely need to chill the hell out sometimes. 

Her descriptions of and advice for the various types of writers are pretty funny.  Read the rest of her post, here.

I’ve been on a movie-watching rampage, catching films such as A Clockwork Orange (what the hell), Breakfast at Tiffany’s, His Girl Friday, Harold and Maude, and Prince of Persia:  Sands of Time (don’t look at me sideways, I got dragged to it because my wife has a crush on Jake Gyllenhaal).  You can always find my own personal score for the movies I watch this year by clicking on Wall-E’s image over there to your right.
