It's a very business-like, course about getting maximum money for writing articles for magazines and the like. Sorry to hear about the play. I'd give it another go if I were you.Clairwilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10503239355248016287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18009508.post-1154379910218265032006-07-31T22:05:00.000+01:002006-07-31T22:05:00.000+01:00Yeah, not exactly the most uplifting notion in th...Yeah, not exactly the most uplifting notion in the world US.

Creative writing can't be taught, it's a 'doing' thing. So just write it for yourself. I wrote a play once and sent it to every theatre in the country.

It doesn't make you any happier, just makes things seem more interesting. <BR/><BR/>Happiness is overrated anyway.<BR/><BR/>Make up a family, or something. Say you were brought up by a brace of psycho-badgers living in a semi-detatched aeroplane hanger in Droitwich, living on marmalade sandwiches and doing the Times crossword by the light of glow worms - the rest of the group will probably make it all up too anyway.
