Triplet...

Wow, you sure are braver than I am, Triplet! I'm a creative writer (I've taken four years of fiction & poetry workshops at UCI) who decided long ago that the time demands & writing style of journalism just wasn't for me. I'm really impressed that you're making that leap.

I understand how nerve wracking sending work off to an editor can be. Especially when the assignment isn't clicking. For what it's worth, I really enjoy your clear prose style. From what I know of literary journalism, your reviews demonstrate a good handle on what makes a good journalist. You always communicate your biases (such as in your Mortal review), you write concisely, you take multiple perspectives on an episode (I love how you note cinamatography & set design as well as more obvious points like acting & writing)--not to mention you analyze character development superbly.

Or, in short, I'd say: "don't worry too much about it." :)

Thanks... :blush:
 
If anyone cares, the editor liked my piece and it will be published in this week's issue.

:D :up:

I didn't even take the angle on the article he originally had wanted and he still liked it. I'll be interested in seeing how much he edited it...

The pay sucks but I'm excited about seeing my name (well, my pen name anyway) in print. I'm writing under my maiden name.

Way to go, Triplet! See, I told you not to worry. :)
 
Any word when your Cyborg review will go up?
 
Uhm... I sent him an initial version last night then reread it and changed a few things and sent him another version this morning....

I haven't heard back from either email so I don't know.

Maybe I'll change my screen name for here but I'd hate to give up my huge tommy beefcake avatar so I guess I won't go to that extreme... :D ;) :p

Just add him to your ignor list :)
 
Naw, I'm just teasing...

He's harmless but if it gets too annoying I will put him on ignore.

Im just like chloe sometimes you love me sometimes you hate me.

That's a very appropriate comparison... :D LOL!

Do you have flippy blonde hair and a light up the room smile just like her too?

Yeah hate her b/c she's beautiful and wants Clark to tell her the truth...ohh how I wish you all could see how normal everyday ppl think of Lana on the show. They love her and they're getting annoyed with Clark not telling her.
 
Great article Triplet. The prose is very smooth & clear. But...now I want to go see that play. :(

Could you tell I faked knowing anything about that play?

I have never seen it and hadn't ever seen the screen version with Elizabeth Taylor either...

Research on the internet is a beautiful thing. :D

No, I couldn't tell that you hadn't ever seen it. I just thought you were really good about presenting the core themes of the work without revealing anything crucial about the plot. I'm going to give your review another thumbs up for the excellent integration of internet research. :up::up:
