I’m anxious to see this. I really liked Becoming Jane – not because I think it’s a faithful biopic by a long shot (LOL).

Hi, Didn’t know how else to get in touch with you but this is in reference to your early school comments on Erica’s blog.

Would you mind if I borrow the construction paper “address learning” idea? I seem to recall I had a horrible time remembering the numbers and West 8th Street when asked for my own. It might make a cute children’s story but it needed the OOMP of the construction paper on the blackboard–who will be the last kid standing?

Let me know and thanks, Donna

I was never a huge Tom Cruise fan, but now I refuse to watch anything he’s ever been in in the past and will never watch anything new he puts out.

This is why I don’t read People magazine or anything like that. I really don’t want to know what those people are really like.

I’m that way too. I was a fan of Tom Cruise before he opened his big mouth and made a jackass out of himself. I love A Few Good Men, but can’t bring myself to watch it anymore because of his attitude.

I’m glad I don’t know very much about Heath Ledger’s life. I want it to stay that way too so I can legitimately miss his lack of future contributions to the silver screen.

Great article. Miss Austen Regrets is really great and very moving. It will inspire you to read her letters. Cheers, Laurel Ann

I try to steer clear of learning too much about authors/actors/persons of interest whose work I admire for fear of discovering they have feet of clay. While I know no one is perfect, it rubs some of the bloom off to find a writer or actor I admire is nothing like the calibre persons they write or portray. Naive? Probably, but it works for me.
