    Musing on Characters Named Sue. Mary Sue.
    I have hereby decided that Matthew Reilly is an incredibly pretentious writer. Does anyone here read his books? I was thinking about it, seeing all the hype that his latest book received and the amount of people who were beating down the doors at Target wanting the book (complete Dan Brown who? moment!), but after reading what I've read and learning what I have...

    No thanks. Why the hell would you put your own character on that much of a freakin' pedestal. Mary Sue much?

    </rant>

    Though one lady's suggestion that James Bond could be one of the world greatest warriors had me laughing for some time.

    Anyway.

    I got a new job. AGAIN!! Arg! Haha. Will be working at the school I went to for years 11 and 12 as curriculum assistant at the end of January. Scary much? More on that to come!

    I Dream a Dream
    P.S. I'm thinking I should have kept a journal or at least posted lots more about my adventures in retail. If this is the end, the last 5 years would have still made a bloody good book.

    I wonder if I've forgotten it all?
