I don't usually drool though, it's bad for the keyboard. <br /><br />So I guess I will never make the list. <br /><br />I used the Dorian Gray cover because, out of the list, that was my personal favorite.Cheryl Anne Gardnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12564041914501542048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20796627.post-81191402152638517992009-05-12T08:58:00.000-05:002009-05-12T08:58:00.000-05:00Cheryl,

Break your ankle<br />2. Write your only book as a 14yr old or about one.<br />3. Live in a permanent state of destitution and hunger.<br />4. Get arrested for something or at least locked away somewhere for a while.<br />5. Leave your homeland and then get deported - that sorts the exile and expulsion bit!<br />6. Become a recluse<br />7. Commit suicide.<br />8. Finally, win Pulitzer.<br /><br />Now, let me see, which ones can I do...<br /><br />Doh...!Mick Rooneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15787268101730723300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20796627.post-80057616107265131942009-05-12T07:23:00.000-05:002009-05-12T07:23:00.000-05:00Great post!

Although quite obvious, isn't it interesting how almost all of these authors suffered from physical illness, mental illness, loneliness and solitude, alcoholism, imprisonment, the list goes on and on...and I can think of at least a few dozen other writers not on this list, and writers still around today, who have suffered the same. Strange how sometimes our best work comes from the tragedy we have suffered, no?Shannon Yarbroughhttp://www.shannonyarbrough.comnoreply@blogger.com
