howimetsalmanrushdie

Really? No, not yet. But plan to. And it's not like meeting the pope anyway. You'd only have to be 20 years younger (which I am), a top model (which I'm not), or a writer (which I will be). Ok, I guess I don't qualify. But, hey, did Julie (from' Julie and Julia' ) ever think her courage to fight a lobster would bring her fame, glory (and all the other important words)? I guess she hoped it would. With lights off. (BTW, don't know about the book, but the movie wouldn't stand on its feet without Meryl Streep.)



Anywho, this is supposed to be a 'literature' blog where people who read books and those who aspire to write them can meet and chat in a laid-back, cigar-in-mouth-- (oh, yes, smoking is good for you, most good writers were smokers), chopin-in-ear, and lots of chocolate at hand (unless you have some unexplainable stomach problems like me), this sentence is going to end now--who says me haven't met rushdie yet?--ATMOSPHERE. I plan to write a weekly review of a book I read. Something like that. And when I actually finish something I start writing and gather le courage, I'll even put up some of my own..things-let's just call them that, for now- for you to tear and cut (too much Grey's Anatomy).



Dear blog, welcome to the nuthouse.

  1. Dear Ms Dobos that sounds like a great idea! Read some write some! I look forward to you posts just as much as you look forward to my comments : )

  3. Maybe you can also propose a book in advance (short one!) and we read along...Online book club kinda. I like how Romanians have (or used to) a good appetite for reading, but it's a shame of how that changes once you become part of this big industrial machine which is so successful in making robots. Anyway, I'd love the challenge to read something, anything!
