hello all, the tome has come that my bank balance has forced me to drop any sense of artistic integrity. the plan i've always had for making a living in this life is to be a writer i may only be young but i've had plenty of encouragement from my tutors at uni. i was having a coffee and a menthol cigarette with my old first year tutor the other day and as usual she had to pay because i am living somewhere just below the bread line. so there we were joyfully partaking of some legal stimulants when she came up with a novel suggestion (like the pun?). she said i should write mills and boon books for a while to earn a bit of cash. just in case any of you innocent people don't know what mills and boon are, let me just explain. they are basically porno novels. you see old ladies reading them on the train. and you have know idea the sort of smut they are reading. no wonder they always have their legs apart (sorry). so i thought ok, why not? i'll have to use a pen name because i don't want to be tarnished for ever. but sod it! better this than always living off the generosity of my friends. so if any of you have any interesting erotic metaphors you'd like to share, please feel free...... anyway, bye for now robert smith p.s. jules i will send you a letter soon, the delay has been because this week has been mental. _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
