NIP ... Oh My!: February 2009

Wednesday, February 4, 2009. Our adversion to "profanity". I was reading a book about language today, and came across a very interesting concept. The book did not discuss this in detail, and I was unable to come across any reliable internet sources to read further, so I will be left on my own to think about this one:. Is our aversion to profanity simply a well-ingrained superstition? Different cultures deal with profanity differently, and in those cultures different things are considered vulgar or profane.

NIP ... Oh My!: Are "Gatekeepers" Necessary in the Publishing Business?
http://newsissuespolitics.blogspot.com/2011/05/are-gatekeepers-necessary-in-publishing.html
Wednesday, May 11, 2011. Are "Gatekeepers" Necessary in the Publishing Business? On the internet, self-publishing is everywhere. Ebooks and Kindle books abound. There are literally millions of blogs. I am self-publishing this blog post. Information is being thrown at us from every direction. The question is: Do we NEED gatekeepers (i.e. publishers, editors, etc.) to filter these items for us? Where do you stand on this issue? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Visions and Views from a Visiting Voyeur.

NIP ... Oh My!: January 2009

Friday, January 30, 2009. The Responsibility of a Writer. I was listening to an interview with an author a few days ago and he mentioned briefly the responsibility that writers have to tell the truth. This struck me. I don't think he was referring to some sort of cultural or societal obligation or expectation. It was more of a moral obligation that a writer should feel to tell the truth about the subject. I thought about this, and wondered if it could be taken a step further. Thursday, January 29, 2009.
