I have been looking at some mail articles online - they come up on yahoo and it seems recently they seem to have a thing against Labour. I wonder why that is.

I love reading the Daily Mail online - especially the user comments. I've submitted some, but they've never been published. Unimpressed

From the films I've watched over the years, even the more unconventional ones still adhere in some way to a 3 Act Structure, it seems. (At least the good ones do.) Saying that, it's not foremost in my mind when writing, but structure is ultimately important. Probably. Errr

Some are 5, all depends on genre of film.

Well, I'm now suffering from a ganglion cyst on my wrist from manic writing sessions.

The Mail's strength is in actual newspaper sales. Not sure how popular it's online presence is.

Traditionally cured by a swift thump on the wrist from the large old family Bible. Or if you're a Muslim, the large old family Koran. Atheists should consult a surgeon.

Mike Leigh in 'Naked'

I bought that recently and enjoyed it. The psychopath landlord is a fangtastic character.

I read a copy the other day. No wonder it sells so well, it featured a whole page article by Brian Sewell about his pet dogs. Quality journalism.

You have to sell a wart to a gyspy. That's what I was taught.

It's a right eyeopener and they seem to go for a lot of shots of scantily clad women which surprises me.
