To the editor:
I was both dismayed and saddened by the recent letter published from Guy Lamolinara regarding Classical Movements. Many of the facts presented in his letter were misleading and largely untrue. For example, most of the programs sponsored by Classical Movements are in fact just one hour each – typically spread a few hours apart on a Saturday. Two hours total.
And fortunately, most of the attendees left their “rock and roll stage” a long time ago and are all rather somber. The large events are few and far between. Due to the pandemic, the crowds are kept to a minimum at all events.

TAG TEAM. YouTuber Morganeua, a fourth year PhD student in Theatre and Performance Studies, uses Stephen King and Toni Morrison to beat Isaac Asimov into the ground in “Asimov’s Adverbs.” (Think of it as a homage to “Fenimore Cooper’s Literary Offenses.”)
I just finished reading “Foundation and Empire” by Isaac Asimov and it was GREAT but I noticed THIS about his writing. What do you think about excessive -ly adverb use in novels?

Some people outline their novel before they start. Others don’t, but just plunge right and start. There’s plenty of advice on how to do the former, but those who practice the latter sometimes feel that they’re floundering, and no one’s providing any guidance. Working with my own process as well as that of students, clients, and mentees, I’ve come up with twelve principles for writing that you can apply, pre and post-pantsing, in order to start moving from chaos to order.
