Hey I'm new to this forum, but I freequent the VBS forum, and I have made a few posts on the writers workshops, but here's what I have to say.
I'm doing a project for school about an author and I have chosen OSC. I already have a good ammount of information, but here's my problem, I need to have 5 PAGES of information for this paper and I don't know if I have enough, so if any of you could contribute to my efforts it would be alot of help, right now all I have is 2 and a half pages of "Screw Flanders"

Well, let's see. He has various Hawaiian shirts in varying sizes, which he purchases at Target.

He has all of these strange followers called jatraqueros.

His goal in life is to take over the world with this crazy sidekick that he calls Pinky.

That's about the extent of my knowledge on the subject.

Oh yeah, he's a Mormon.

Ahem.

Jatraqueros, not Hatraqueros. [Roll Eyes]

i also suggest checking out as many of his books as you can so you can read all the forwards, etc.

some great info is tucked away in there.

Thanks! Hey if you have anything else, please, please, please help.

This particular answer in the research section gives a lot of info. Oh, and we expect (a) for you to return and be a part of this community, not just suck us dry for info and leave, and (b) to see the final version of your project. Welcome to this area of the 'Rack -- hope you stick around.

Oh, and some of his favorite people here become characters in his books, or so I've heard. [Smile]

Hmmm? *innocent look*

Posted by Spectre (Member # 5232) on :

Well I plan to start posting regularly, but I'm not sure if I can get the report up, though I might. As for OSC making characters off of people on this forum...cool!

*Scratches head* I have it available, but how would I go about putting up the essay? Would I just post it on the forums?
