Reviews For: The Musings Of A Hedonistic Scribbler
Nemonus 2008-05-23 . chapter 1
Good vocabulary and sentence flow.

"I have often joked with my friends (both the physical ones and the ones who exist purely in graphite scribbles in battered old notebooks), that I should marry my keyboard, as we make such beautiful children together." lol.

This "I’ve written about a child prophesised to have psychic powers so great, he was killed in the womb. " sounds interesting. Your shameless self-advertising may have worked.

Good. I would have liked if you took the next step in the paragraph about fiction making sense, and said that writers' work needs to make sense because the real world doesn't. I've heard that as an argument for why people write before, as well as the one about absolutely having to write. Said Asimov, "I write for the same reason that I breathe; because if I didn't I would die."

So, good essay, cool tone of voice, even if the ideas aren't all that new.

Very well put! These are thoughts I can most definitely relate to. Keep on writing for yourself, and don't forget that a writer writes first for themselves!

hey you! why go and marry your keyboard when you can marry me!? lol
(by the way to all those who are reading this review this was not a offical proposal)
