::weeps:: No, but the posters are starting to go up so I m hoping it will be here this month. I m hoping Finding Neverland will be here this month! ::weeps some more::
Now, now, we've had a loooong conversation about feeling pressured to write. *sighs* I guess it's useful not to let yourself drown in sloth, but don't be so hard on yourself.
Yes, I remember this conversation. Oh, I m not so hard on myself. Writing is relatively easy for me, when I m inspired and have the time. (I have neither atm, but what else is new? :p)
Why doesn't it count? *curious*
Good question. I guess it s because I think of the series is a bunch of fragments rather than the regular prose narrative I m used to writing. Prose narrative seems more . . . substantial. Also, the series is so personal that it s almost a form of journalizing. (Actually, did you know that journalizing now could fall into the category of creative non-fiction?) Bottom line, it doesn t feel like fiction to me going by my standard definition.
I have never written a proper LotR fic. ::is completely shocked::
I've got a whole notebook - no kidding - of sketches of a Faraboro fic that I was going to gift a friend for Christmas in 2002. *ashamed* I just never sat down and did it.
Well, it s not too late is it? I mean, I m sure said friend would still appreciate it. In fact, it would be even more unexpected now. You could even call the fic Sketches if it a series of sketches detailing the brothers relationship. (This is so ALD. ::grin::)
*hugs* Sorry to have poked. Not a problem. I was so happy to see your review. :-)
I hope it does get there, because it's such a great film. I have no doubt! I m such a huge Mike Nichols fan. His films always feel very intimate, very gritty and real. And he really specializes in dissecting human relationships.
either way, let me know when you watch it! I ll be sure to!
