"Rebecca, I think Michele has to accept the Facebook friend request I sent to her before I can send her a message on Facebook. Please give her my name so she knows you recommended I get in touch with her. Or, she can email me at balfaro_6@hotmail.com"

"Thank you. I'll look into it but to be honest, I can't spend much at all at least at this point.  Still, it's worth knowing about."

The Ridiculous Woman

 

I’m a ridiculous woman

in a ridiculous body

wearing ridiculous clothes.

My eyes are two buttons,

my nose a clothespin,

my mouth, half a crayon,

ears, shells of odd size,

hands, empty mittens.

My feet I refuse to describe.

My dreams are of noodles,

my hair, spinach green.

I’m the most ridiculous woman

I’ve ever seen.

I just opened the door to the novelist group for you - welcome! You might introduce yourself by telling us what you’re working on in the “Show Me Your Novel and I’ll Show You Mine” discussion if you're not too uncomfortable talking about what you're working on. And we do a live chat every Wednesday; hope you can join us for that!

Hi Barbara

The piece on Cinematic Visuals is in the Discussion Forum on Writing a Screenplay Group.

Scroll down to after JUMP IN! and you'll find the box saying 'Discussion Forum' and you'll see the title immediately beneath this saying 'The Cinematic Power of Visuals'.

 

The way it works is that anyone in the group can start a discussion on a topic. Comments and replies are posted in the Discussion Forum, not on the general Comment Wall.

 

Hope that helps!

Pauline

Hi

Did you see the discussion I started on Writing A Screenplay about How to Write Visuals in repsonse to your request for help?

Hey Barbara, I'm dumb-struck with admiration for Before Dark.  It does everything you're good at.  Took your advice & submitted my last story to a magazine I like [Electric Literature]-- will let you know how that goes--my first-ever submission, so who knows. Working on some other stuff, but Scribd has garbled all my docs, so not uploading right now.  C.
