I have a list of Harry Potter movies that I don't expect Ms Dowling will EVER allow anyone to make. A number of them involve well-known Potter characters engaged in such activities. Just think of the possibilities of BSDM-related magic! Heh heh heh! ;) > In reality, I'm never going to write a novel, because I can't turn > out a story that goes for more than about 15 pages.

Have two college degrees in it and been doing it since 1969. But it produces something of lasting value. (Unless you write user manuals. Those have an inherent lifespan, during which they frequently need 2nd, 3rd, etc editions done.) So do a 2nd, updated edition of your Rosegarden book as an ebook! -- David W.
