Ennyman's Territory: 4 Lessons for Writers from The Rise and Fall of F. Scott Fitzgerald
http://pioneerproductions.blogspot.com/2015/08/4-lessons-for-writers-from-rise-and.html
ARTS, CULTURE AND OTHER LIFE OBSESSIONS. Wednesday, August 5, 2015. 4 Lessons for Writers from The Rise and Fall of F. Scott Fitzgerald. This past week I listened again to Professor Elliot Engel's lecture called The Rise and Fall of F. Scott Fitzgerald. Actually, I enjoyed it so much I listened to it twice in a row, even though I'd also heard it and wrote about it in 2008. It is insightful as regards the life of a major American writer, but it is also instructive for those who feel impelled to write today.

ARTS, CULTURE AND OTHER LIFE OBSESSIONS. Saturday, August 1, 2015. Book Reviews: John Grisham's The Firm and Theodore Boone: The Activist. Q: How many lawyers does it take to roof a house? A: It depends on how thin you slice them. OK, that was was mean. I won't tell the second one. Having just finished two John Grisham audiobooks I have lawyers on my mind. The first was an abridged version of The Firm. In the same way that Erle Stanley Gardner. As Mitch soon learns, his firm's primary client is a Chicago...

Ennyman's Territory: How I Came To Be an Interviewer of Local Artists
http://pioneerproductions.blogspot.com/2015/08/how-i-came-to-be-interviewer-of-artists.html
ARTS, CULTURE AND OTHER LIFE OBSESSIONS. Monday, August 10, 2015. How I Came To Be an Interviewer of Local Artists. When in the early 80’s I felt a sense of calling to become a serious writer – that is, to take writing seriously - I felt impelled to read as many books on writing as I could lay my hands on, frequently adding the best of them to my personal library. (Advice I have given to many young writers over the years.) One of these was The Craft of Interviewing. These early interviews showed me that ...

http://pioneerproductions.blogspot.com/2015/08/sunshine-of-your-love-and-explicit.html
ARTS, CULTURE AND OTHER LIFE OBSESSIONS. Tuesday, August 11, 2015. Sunshine of Your Love and the Explicit Ambiguity of Rock and Roll. But if I really say it, the radio won't play it. Unless I lay it between the lines.". Peter, Paul and Mary. It's been often noted how certain smells can vividly bring us back to moments in our past, and I think music often does the same. Yesterday "Sunshine of Your Love" by the 60's super group Cream did this for me. The artwork on the cover was pure psychedelia and the ly...
