Viveca Stone | | Hey! Great topic!
I enjoyed your last book "Weekend in New England." A slightly different topic?!
L - how did you come up with this topic? How is your book coming? How do you do it - work, write, be married ... do you get up @ 4 am or something?
I am full of questions tonight!
Look forward to learning more and getting to know everyone else here too!
Love on! Viveca

Linda J. Alexander http://www.lindajalexander.net | | Sweet Viveca:
Thx for joining the network & asking questions. I appreciate the kind words, as well.
L - how did you come up with this topic? The idea for this network evolved from extensive research into the life of Robert Taylor, "The Man With The Perfect Face," an idol of Hollywood's Golden Era of film. Taylor was in many movies but the backdrop for his life was his strong belief in the traditional American way. Communism was an issue in those days, & there was very much an "us" vs "them" mentality. Taylor gave testimony in front of the government's House Un-American Committee, labeled by the press as the one big star to "name names" of other professionals he felt were communist. The truth is that he answered questions put to him, questions designed to lead him in a direction in which he'd be placed in a position where he'd be required to "yea" or "nay" names that were first placed in front of him.
How is your book coming? How do you do it - work, write, be married ... do you get up @ 4 am or something? My book's doing well. When we really believe in something -- as you well know -- we make time for what's important. I think Taylor has an amazing story to be told, & I'm going to be the one to tell it.
BTW, you're one who should talk! You leave me in the dust, m'dear! I get dizzy just thinking about all you have going.
I hope you'll keep this forum in your line-up. If you have suggestions, or questions you'd like to pose here, or subjects you think would be good generators, please feel free to pipe in.
Blessings -- Linda
