Are you published anywhere? If not, you might want to consider it. I'd buy your book(s).

Yin,

Thank you so much. You are so sweet. And you are so welcome. I wrote this story to be read. You do more for me just by reading it than you'll ever know. My gratitude is yours.

Poetry.com published a book called "The Colors Of Life"... Now, I don't know if the author always receives a copy with his own poem printed on the first page... but I'm hoping they don't (*laughs mischievously*).

I've never seriously attempted to write a script before, but I could see it happening.

My best friend and I are taking a class in film-making this Fall. Just the basics, how to work the camera, etc. (I don't want or need anybody to tell me where to point it.) We're both interested in film, which makes perfect sense. He's an Aquarius. Aquarius is in my first house, and Uranus Conjunct my Sun at the midheaven. We're particularly into documentary, and the purity and realism of cinema verite. Also, we are both interested in the phenomenon of institutionalization, particularly in prisons and mental hospitals. We both have a lot of sympathy for convicts and psychotics.

The only serious problem I could foresee would be our mutual - how shall I say - 'mule-headedness'. We are both as stubborn, as fixed, as our signs would suggest. Neither one of us will give more than half-an-inch when we think our way is "the right way". And we pretty much always do. But, then, we truly enjoy bucking heads, and it would be one helluva challenge to see if we can, ultimately, learn humilty through the exercising of our mutual arrogance.
