Another Day, Another Chapter

So, I am being a really rude host right now to a friend who is in from out of town and writing you all another chapter of "Silent Night". You all should feel lucky that I love you!

Chapter 7 (because I can't count and last night was really chapter 6) will be up before 9 and then I am going to see Public Enemies because I like looking at Johnny Depp and Christian Bale.

I'm writing again!!!

Good news to all of my fanfic fans-I AM WRITING AGAIN. I am currently working on Chapter 7 of my Alice fanfic "Silent Night". I hope you all enjoy it!!!

As I said in the A/N it's just so difficult for me to find time during the year to write and that's the reason for the long hiatus. But now I am back-hopefully for a while.

Critic Language decoded

So, I was just watching ABC Family and there was a commercial for "Secret Life of the American Teenager". In it they talked about what the critics are saying about the show and one of the comments was it was "brilliantly written".

Rule number 1 about critic-ese(the language of critics):
When critics say a show is well written, that means pretty much everything about the show is horrible--which is the case of "Secret Life" (and yet I still watch it, so go figure that one out!). As a critic, I know that if you are forced to focus on the writing that's because you cannot bear to focus on anything else.

That's your lesson for the day.
