THE DOCTOR IS IN
DEAR BOOK BIZ SANTA, The holiday season can be a beautiful, joyous period of renewal and connection. It can also reinforce feelings of loneliness and inadequacy in sensitive, vulnerable people. This includes everyone, but writers tend to struggle in particular ways. Those lucky few of us who can...
Hey Dr. Sue,
Creative promises are the best kind of obligations. As long as we dno't back down, we can force ourselves to stretch and grow.

THE DOCTOR IS IN
Doing the Thing I Think I Cannot Do I am more than a little intimidated by my new musical theater class. The teacher is brilliant, witty, and a highly accomplished performer herself; and most of the other students seem Broadway-ready to me. After the first few classes, in which I performed wel...

The Ad Man Answers #88
Thursday + Gregory Huffstutter = The Ad Man Answers Q: Pixar/Disney has this new movie, TOY STORY 3. Cue the tie-in. We see Woody and Buzz at McDonald's, at the post office, at the food store. It seems a win-win situation. People see the characters on products unrelated to ...
Hey M.J.,
My characters assure me that I'm in charge. Of course one then tells me to pick up her drycleaning, and another reminds me I still need to mow his lawn, and apparantly I'm babysitting all this weekend.

THE DOCTOR IS IN
COINCIDENZA? I've been corresponding with my novelist friend A about some weird synchronous events that have occurred recently in our lives, and how they would stretch the imagination in a novel. Just one example: Recent events in my life have triggered some disturbing childhood memories that I...
Hey Dr. Sue,
Steven? STEVEN?! That's it, I'm never going on the internet AGAIN. So there.
Now if I can just break my daughter of the habit of calling me "Dad" instead of "The acclaimed writer Stephen D. Rogers."

Hey Dr. Sue,
Two points.
One, in mysteries I think that synchonicity is often used to explain how the detective gets a sudden flash that puts the pieces together.
Two, when these odd coincidences happen in real life (and I do jump on them), part of the magic is that the coincidences can't be readily explained. With a novel, well, the author made it happen. Real events turned fictional thus lose some of their punch.
