I didn't know about this blog; cool. The woman being interviewed on it, Barbara Nicolosi, is a teacher at a month-long screenwriting class for Christians which I took a couple of years ago!

I actually got the link from this blog: quoththemaven who, I think, might have helped start that screenwriting class? I'm not sure. Lots of HP tidbits and other musings worth reading.

Reading the Screwtape letters (even this perody) gives me chills, because I know taht it is like this and worse and that the only thing that preserves us is the grace of God in Christ. <3.

Cute piece, and really a fantastic mimic of Lewis's style. The first section describes my beef with the Da Vinci book: the fact that despite it being billed clearly as fiction, people take it as fact right and left. I mean...it's a novel! Novels are good and wonderful things, but where did anyone get the idea that they were intended to be taken with that degree of seriousness?

Exactly! Fiction is just that... FICTION. *shakes head in disbelief*

Well, I suppose since some people still believe that Elvis and that one rap-star whosit guy are still alive, I guess there are going to be people who take a badly written novel too seriously.
