The wife has a pleasant, even privileged history of getting to read what RT writes. <BR/><BR/>Back on topic: Alex, BRAVO! :) I can't think of a more excellent thing to say to a writer.InvisibleMarketinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16703896506681508464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15765179.post-82037665235597686942008-06-09T12:20:00.000-05:002008-06-09T12:20:00.000-05:00eat now, not ear noweat now, not ear nowM.

She follows my flickr feed and probably has Google Alerts for my name because sometimes she asks me about various postings I make on bulletin boards (concert reviews, film criticism, etc.). <BR/><BR/>I'm know my wife reads the blog because every night I go, "Did you read my blog entry today? Did you? Did you? Huh? Huh?" and we can't have dinner or do anything until she reads it and goes, "That was the best thing you've ever written. Can we ear now?"<BR/><BR/>But don't worry about self-censoring. Be yourself.M.

In fact, that's why I began blogging to see if I could develop and interest in reading...it's getting better but still not all the way there!Terahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05237609498669814077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15765179.post-34555137008064391702008-06-06T11:47:00.000-05:002008-06-06T11:47:00.000-05:00Sorry, there is a strict 10 page limit.

The idea is that by being a DSA member is that you produce at least one script a year no matter what.<BR/><BR/>The downside is that several DSA members have scripts with a cliffhanger every 10 pages.<BR/><BR/>Some people use this limit to their advantage - especially the people who write "webisodes". You can have the actors read three three-page webisode scripts during your allotted time. <BR/><BR/>All I can say as far as what happens next is concerned is that it should get funnier.M.
