Fran Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 I momentarily grew horns and a forked tail the other day. I wrote a review for NB's Six Pillars on Amazon.co.uk, gave it 5* and said how excellent I thought it was and why. I wanted to use a pen name and the example given for pen names was "Mark Twain"......which got me thinking about female authors......and then it came to me, I could use 'Ayn Rand' as my pen name......then it would look like Ayn Rand was now writing rave reviews for Nathaniel Branden's books, presumably having forgiven him for all his past sins...Oh the temptation to be mischievous!However, I figured it would annoy more people than it would make smile, so I didn't. My halo has returned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JennaW Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 I'm like that too. If someone says "That book was disapproved by so-and-so!" the first thing I'll do is look it up and read it. If someone tells me that something is sinful or the like, I'm sure to be poking around in it. In all cases, it has provided me with lots of education and growth.Now I am wary of any talk of "sinful" because more often than not, it is not based sin, but on fear.
