Not quite an unknown debut, rather a "performance artist", "film maker" and "writer." I don't know why that should bother me, I suppose it seems more studiously kooky than I at first supposed it to be.<BR/>Now I find it manipulative and studiedly quirky.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00597852661913928616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32078352.post-61751083181607095932007-05-09T16:47:00.000+01:002007-05-09T16:47:00.000+01:00She definitely doesn't write chick lit and froth -...She definitely doesn't write chick lit and froth - but I only know that because I know who she is already. She wrote and directed this wonderful film called My, Myself and Everyone We Know. or something like that.

I havent got a single idea of this writer, or what she writes... but the fridge thing, the gas hob thing, her approach, tells me that she writes light, chick lit, froth, and I wouldn't be interested in it.<BR/><BR/>It could be that she is a wonderful writer outside this genre... but on this performance alone, I wouldn't bother to find out.<BR/><BR/>So... has it worked as a marketing exercise?<BR/><BR/>VVanessa Gebbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00833187671441310234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32078352.post-26412719445679553202007-05-07T14:52:00.000+01:002007-05-07T14:52:00.000+01:00excellent question?
