Parents twig to the reality of empty nesting We’re sorry, this service is currently unavailable. Please try again later. Dismiss Normal text size Advertisement The Empty Nestors was a TV show idea I had about a couple named the Nestors whose kids leave home, so now they’re “empty nesters” and they’re also “empty Nestors” because they’re so tired from years of parenting. As implausibly-coincidental painfully-contrived pun-titled parenting shows go, this one was going to sell itself. Unfortunately Packed to the Rafters came out a few months later, a TV show about a couple named the Rafters whose kids leave home – and Australian TV probably didn’t need two implausibly-coincidental painfully-contrived pun-titled parenting shows. So I moved onto my even better idea for a fishing and film history infotainment show called ....
The Eulogy of The Novelist: What comes after the death of the author Can we ever really know our favourite authors? Art by Ellie Stephenson May 9, 2021 If, as Joan Didion said, “we tell ourselves stories in order to live,” then we tell the stories of others in order to better know how to die. How to leave a legacy. The biography is one such device. Last month, publisher W. W. Norton permanently halted distribution of Blake Bailey’s recent biography of American novelist Philip Roth after allegations surfaced that Bailey had groomed, harassed, and raped multiple women. It’s hard not to relate these revelations to one of the main criticisms from which his biography suffered – that he was uncritical of Roth’s misogyny, claims of which soured and followed Roth for much of his career. In fact, Ross Miller’s very frankness about Roth’s misogyny led Roth to end an agreement with Miller to initially write his biography. But any ....

âI couldnât be with someone who liked Jack Reacherâ: can our taste in books help us find love? Readers are in demand on dating sites, with one focused entirely on bringing book-lovers together. But is our taste in literature truly a good indication of compatibility? âItâs not that there are better quality people at a bookshop, but we associate things like coincidence and serendipity with romanceâ . 1999 film Notting Hill.

Counter Craft The long and short of novel lengths Share We like to pretend that art is art. That an author writes what they are inspired to write, with no concern but the voice of the muse. This is a useful fiction. It is good for writers to focus on the art when writing and worry about the business side later. But it is a fiction. Writers are aware of market demands, what kinds of novels get buzz, and what subjects award judges gravitate towards. Even writers with high artistic aspirations are consciously or unconsciously warped by these pressures. Especially those of us hoping to make a living on our writing. ....
