Writing Blog Number 2

by S 🤦

Rated: 18+ · Book · Personal · #2311764

This is a continuation of my blogging here at WdC

This will be a blog for my writing, maybe with (too much) personal thrown in. I am hoping it will be a little more interactive, with me answering questions, helping out and whatnot. If it falls this year (2024), then I may stop the whole blogging thing, but that's all a "wait and see" scenario.

An index of topics can be found here: "Writing Blog No.2 Index"

Feel free to comment and interact.

Very informative. There's always a touch of gray; now I have that song stuck in my head.

I'm still in awe of his commercial where he did the splits between 2 semi-trucks. INSANE! And probably not the smartest stunt, but maybe there were more safety precautions in place than there seemed to be...

Schnujo's Giving Away GPs - Nothing against JCVD at all... this is against Frank Dux, a man who rivals Hulk Hogan with the truth of his "autobiographies." In fact, I have around 8 JCVD films on DVD. Timecop is still such an OTT piece of silliness.

Suggested by me? Cool!

Yeah, you definitely gotta watch that "Inspired by a true story" stuff. I saw a movie that was inspired by a true story once and it ended with fairies flying out a window or something. Uh, pretty sure that was some very serious artistic license there. Sheesh!

However, I will not have you saying anything bad about my beloved Jean Claude nor any of his movies. Think what you will about him, but his body (at least back when he was making movies like Bloodsport) made up for any lack of acting that men claimed existed. Women didn't notice as they were focused on his other assets. Hahahaha!!!

I read through some of that. Huge list of scammers and dangerous websites. I don't publish but I'll keep this in mind.

20250305 Publishers et al. To Avoid

Publishers And Others TO AVOID!

This is a short one because I wanted to put down here a list of publishers and their ilk to avoid.

So this blog is simply a link to a huge list.

This was put together by the former Pred-Ed (Preditors & Editors) staff of SFWA.

Before you accept a contract, make sure the company IS NOT HERE!

Hope that helps you not make mistakes.
