He is making a movie in Hollywood, about a man who has 15 different hairstyles and he has one hour to choose which one. He aint got time for us no more..just leave him..leave him. He'll come back..they all do..
What has been my best work so far? Page 13
Well, I for one am now declaring myself an unashamed James Cotter fan.
His passion and enthusiasm for writing is incredible. If I had half his energy and began writing at his age I'd be a much better writer now.
His treatment at the hands of his "elders and betters" has been frankly shameful at times. And yet the guy has taken all the snidey remarks and knockdowns with a good-humoured grace and humilty that I admire. And every time we, his peers, knock him down, he gets back up, which is one of the marks of a writer in embryo.
Yes, he's a little up himself, but few of us weren't at that age (and stage) in our writing. Yet few people cut him slack for his age, or made allowances for any unseen personal circumstances in his life.
So James Cotter, if you're lurking. Good on you. I'm rooting for you and, if not here, I hope you find the group of supportive peers that you really do deserve.

I agree, How old is he though?

I think James has mentioned he is 19 years of age. He is at Exeter Uni IIRC, too.
He's not at Exeter Uni, he did say where but I can't remember. I think he went to a sixth form college in Exeter and doing a degree course somewhere around there, Good luck to him I say, he's got a lot of drive and takes a fair bit of flak on here with good humour and a lot more chin than some.

I read that and picture you wanting to keep him in a wire hutch and feed him lettuce.
James is a really good sport and is obviously spending much of his time productively. I hope he posts here again.

He'd be indoors. All my buns live inside.
In another Cotter connection, Bear Grylls was on Australian TV tonight.

Ha! I know what you're up to, SlagA. Very clever but it won't work.
I might let James take a little flak from his 'elders and betters' now and then, but at the end of the day, 19 year-old cuddly James Cotter is MY bitch ok?

Which of his rimming techniques do you like the best?

Is that like a limerick or a sonnett?
