That's better ...Becka, what a great comments post. That's better than my original post!<BR/><BR/>*humph* No more posting on my blog. You make me look bad. LOL<BR/><BR/>(Yes, I actually have two altars at my house, one for JJ, one for Joss--haven't bothered with Buffy, but if you say it's worth it, I'll give it a try)Natalie J.

Seems like those babies are always loaned out. We have personally coverted all of our friends into Browncoats, and now WE worship at the altar of Joss Whedon (as you said in one of your prior posts, but insert JJ Abrams here. LOL) But we are original Browncoats, meaning, we watched the show from Day 1. Hardcore, right here, baby! LOL<BR/><BR/>Once we saw Firefly, we immediately bought all seasons of Buffy and Angel (because we thought they were silly and never watched them on TV). Now, we believe that whatever Joss touches is gold. Yup, he's Midas.<BR/><BR/>But on that note, it's kind of like finding an author that you really love and going back to find all of their books. You're right, entertainment is a form of escape, and I'm not ashamed to say that I write to entertain myself first, because let's face it. I have the boring life of a home-schooling stay-at-home mom.<BR/><BR/>Where's the excitement? Where's the thrill? Where's the beefcake? (Sorry, DH LOL)<BR/><BR/>But yes, being a writer definately touches people, and that's ultimately what I've always wanted to do with my work. People have been entertained since the first man walked on two legs. And I don't believe that being an entertainer (and yes, authors are entertainers) is frivolous. I believe entertainers are the ones who make you think, and have the power to change the world.<BR/><BR/>So don't sell yourself or your romance library short. :)<BR/><BR/>~~BeckaBeckahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09591963226430102010noreply@blogger.com
