Books

So I was walking into a book store the other day and I was looking at the Featured area I caught myself thinking "Books are no longer sacred"

Seriously, anyone can write a paper and call it a book now which I find horrid and disturbing

I love reading books, books that the authors actually took time to write you cannot write a book in less than month, anyone who does is a wannabe. Like Sarah Palin (not a fan) writes two books in less than two months? Herman Cain wrote a book in less than a month. I just don't understand it because it takes away the point of literature and how books are reads that are meant to be enjoyed not self-righteous acts and people so full of themselves that they cannot see past their own existence.
Like Stephanie Meyer, he book based on a dream? The writing is terrible but it was her own wet dream of a mythical creature that cannot get an erection... really?
      (Another thing, she has destroyed the Vampiric idea. The true vampires that everyone must know about is Nosferatu and Bram Stoker's Dracula)

For the good authors:
Ann Coulter, as biased and crude as she is actually takes time to write her books, vulgar as they may be she at least put thought and time into it.
Craig Shirley who wrote December 1941 and even his Reagan books took over two years, each. His books are accurate and fascinating.
John Ronald Reuel Tolkien who wrote the Lord of the Rings books, took over three or four years for each of his books, I must admit I have read them several times but I love to reread them. But his books revived epics like Homer's the Iliad and the Odyssey, and introduced the epic (actually literature term) fantastical adventure.
Joanne Rowling with the Harry Potter books? She brought fantasy and excitement back to life. I grew up with the Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings books, Heck I was eleven when the first HP book came out.

 On a number of occasions I find myself rereading my older books because nothing has caught my attention so far, if I do find an interesting book, I'll let you know

Fantasy or Reality

Have you ever felt like you wanted to run away from reality?

Just live in a world with no worries, no pain, no suffering?

I get that all the time. I just want to escape from reality even if it's just for a day

the closest I can feel to being free is feeling the rain and wind.

the rain because I feel my problems and pains going down the drain

the wind because I can feel like I'm flying.

This probably sounds childish but, I play this game called Perfect World International. I play as a cleric (healer) and sometimes I feel like I am living the game, as if I am actually in the game. when I am flying somewhere I actually feel the wind in my face, when I get hurt (fighting mobs) I feel a bit of pain.

That would be fun, to actually live in a game.

I'd try it, what about you?

Paint Away

Digital Art

I did this a few years ago, for my final in High school.

I am asking just one time to comment about it, I want to read your views on it

I got a lot of "that's cool" "great job" etc but those were from my friends :) I just want to see what a stranger thinks about it
