But does this one even count? Does anyone read this one anymore?<BR/><BR/>The Old Man: age 53<BR/><BR/>so like if you write an iconic novel right now and it gets published when you're 27, you will write a large novel in your forties that will be popular for several decades but no one will read anymore<BR/><BR/>and then when you're in your 50s you will write another one <BR/><BR/>which is depressing<BR/><BR/>to think that a writer on average writes one novel in their early life that is really good<BR/><BR/>which implies they are reflecting upon the first 25 years of their life to write the book<BR/><BR/>then they have to live 25 more years and then reflect upon those 25 years to write another<BR/><BR/>so the math is, to write an iconic novel you have to be able to summon up the last 25 years of life and put it into a novel<BR/><BR/>another example<BR/><BR/>Yates was 36 when Rev Road came out<BR/><BR/>Then Easter Parade came out 15 years later<BR/><BR/>the math is not perfect<BR/><BR/>being a writer is a weird job<BR/><BR/>a carpenter can make a wonderful looking kitchen once a week<BR/><BR/>a machine can produce a thousand coffee cups that say Disney Land on them an hour<BR/><BR/>A writer had to write like 20 books to get two to come out right<BR/><BR/>I'm saying 20 even though most only get 8 to 10 published, because a writer usually writes more books or at least starts some that never get shown to anyone.Noah Cicerohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08739671905998435933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13096981.post-28895104326258636772009-02-14T08:26:00.000-05:002009-02-14T08:26:00.000-05:00just think, "what does tao want"jillianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15683507196296617212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13096981.post-55863361582931362412009-02-14T00:38:00.000-05:002009-02-14T00:38:00.000-05:00The last iconic book written was In Cold Blood<BR/><BR/>seriously<BR/><BR/>we need to do something about this<BR/><BR/>what was that <BR/><BR/>like forty fucking years agoNoah Cicerohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08739671905998435933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13096981.post-77106310616054927712009-02-13T21:34:00.000-05:002009-02-13T21:34:00.000-05:00The tao,<BR/>Looking forward to the new issue of Noon, due out soon.Brandon Hobsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00283278352140282719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13096981.post-11820906116198689672009-02-13T20:44:00.000-05:002009-02-13T20:44:00.000-05:00butternut squash soup is too sweet for souptaylorhandhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00448640657522993897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13096981.post-91624865307311769832009-02-13T19:13:00.000-05:002009-02-13T19:13:00.000-05:00i read iconic as ironic.<BR/>it makes your blogpost have a whole different tone<BR/>also it makes your blogpost not make so much senseadam coateshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10893740548007878923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13096981.post-9129849656693037732009-02-13T18:57:00.000-05:002009-02-13T18:57:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.sariya iman okoyehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15840255554361392640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13096981.post-20261130811421410042009-02-13T18:08:00.000-05:002009-02-13T18:08:00.000-05:00cognitive-behavioral therapy feels 'iconic' to mechris moranhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04224395130378110435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13096981.post-82316325998565907052009-02-13T16:57:00.000-05:002009-02-13T16:57:00.000-05:00suicidal in an exciting and ultimately life-affirming wayDJ Berndthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05058521931258110780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13096981.post-6433273919577511092009-02-13T16:36:00.000-05:002009-02-13T16:36:00.000-05:00you can do anythingbracehttp://brace.livejournal.com/noreply@blogger.com
