Sibling Writing Lovers

More From Terry McMillan

Certainly, people can get along without siblings. single children do, and there are people who have irreparably estranged relationships with their siblings who live full and satisfying lives, but to have siblings and not make the most of that resource is squandering one of the greatest interpersonal resources you'll ever have.

You can't actually have a romance between friends. that sort of defeats the definition of the word "romance." the word you're looking for is "love." it's a love between friends, just as there's also love between lovers, or possible lovers, or even ex-lovers. same holds true for "bromance" - it's just a clever word used to avoid the word love, for straight boys who don't want that old-fashioned taint of gayness. dudes, you love each other. deal with it.

Working- and middle-class families sat down at the dinner table every night - the shared meal was the touchstone of good manners. indeed, that dinner table was the one time when we were all together, every day: parents, grandparents, children, siblings. rudeness between siblings, or a failure to observe the etiquette of passing dishes to one another, accompanied by "please" and "thank you," was the training ground of behavior, the place where manners began.

There are some people who get money just because they've got large families. so if it pays to make large families and earn more money than you would earn out at work, why not have more families, larger families? that's wrong.

When i think of [my relationship with gable], considering the way it started, it was curious. we became devoted to each other. we weren't lovers-he was in love with carole lombard...we eventually became more like siblings. nobody believes that and you can understand why...but our relationship was unique. oh he sometimes gave me the macho routine when people were watching but he changed when we were alone.

You've probably heard about the theory of steam-engine time - that even after the steam engine had been invented, it had to wait until people were ready to make use of it. the same thing happens in literary circles. the truth is, i'm not terribly interested in victorian times; i'm interested in victorian writers. i'm interested in most eras of history, but not the victorian era especially. i was interested in the john franklin expedition. i was interested in these last five weird years of dickens' life. and i just have to take the age that comes with all that when i write about it.

The words are clear as in the reflection of the world on the water. therefore write the word at once, everywhere, from now till your hand is paralyzed, for there will be your work for god, since you can not work for god in other ways, and would not, & don't know how, or bend that way, from habit, & from talent in the use & signification & arrangement of the word.
