FRANK TALK ON ENGLISH LITERATURE

MY EXPERIENCE AS AN ENGLISH MAJOR (39:31) / Natalia Leigh (YouTube)

Very interesting and frank and candid monolog on studying English literature.

I will give a sensational key that will make "classics" of literature in English and other languages that seem very dull and boring and very difficult to understand suddenly become very easy to understand and fun to read. I will give that fantastic key soon.

TOEFL 

I scored 98 percentile and 99 percentile on two TOEFL exams. (TOEFL means Test Of English as a Foreign Language.)

I was a Ph.D. researcher-student in the department of physiology and biophysics at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC), a high-ranking U.S. university, and then I was an M.S. applied mathematics student in the department of mathematics, statistics, and computer science at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC), another high-ranking U.S. university. I received a Ph.D. scholarship from UIUC, and an M.S. scholarship from UIC. I had wonderful learning experiences at UIUC and UIC. I left and came back to India because I secretly realized while in the U.S. that I had solved everything in a flash in Bombay (Mumbai) TEN YEARS BEFORE, but I told no one about My truly sensational discoveries until a few years ago when I started revealing My EARTH-SHAKING discoveries in detail in My many online posts, in simple language, step by step, very slowly, patiently, aware of the intellectual limitations of My worldwide audience.

As I began walking toward the plane to start My air travel to America to study and do research on aging at UIUC department of physiology and biophysics under the guidance of Dr. Howard S. Ducoff, who was then Professor of Physiology and Biophysics and of Bioengineering, My sister shouted to Me from the airport: "Dada [Older Brother], don't get trapped by American girls!" I am proud to say that I did not have a single girlfriend in America, just as I did not have a single girlfriend in India; indeed, I never had pre-m. s. Thus, I returned to India completely unscathed.

VERY BIG SELF-PUBLISHING COMPANY 

I can VISUALIZE a very big JOINT SELF-PUBLISHING COMPANY jointly owned by thousands of cr. and non-cr. authortube girls, with MANY BRANCHES throughout America and UK and India, with first CEO Natalia Leigh (maybe), CEO term may be six months or one year or more, a CEO to be replaced at the end of her term by the next CEO.

PEN NAME 

SHOULD YOU USE A PEN NAME? (30:33) / Natalia Leigh (YouTube)

Very interesting.

"To use a pen name or not to use a pen name, that is the question." a la "To be or not to be, that is the question."

Natalia is a serious authortube girl unlike cr. authortube girls Camille and Brooke et al.

I first learned many years ago from the autobiography of Charles Darwin about his method of coming to a decision about a vexing problem by writing on a sheet of paper all the pros and cons of the vexing problem. (I think the source of Natalia's vexing problem of whether or not to use a pen name or pen names is cecelia ahern, the mysterious author of THE YEAR I MET YOU.)

Giving up Camp NaNoWriMo?

Newbie authortube girls Camille Myrick, Adele Marie etc. seem to have given up Camp NaNoWriMo ... What ON EARTH is crazy Camp NaNoWriMo? A con scheme invented by world's biggest cheating pair Peter/Christ and Christine to give FALSE hope to aspiring newbie authortube girls, Amazon/Peter/Christ/Hitler & Christine MONOPOLIZING book sale in America and publishing ON A LARGE SCALE only their OWN authors and blocking other authors? PATREON is a CROOKED scheme invented by the world's biggest cheat Peter. [Peter - Patreon - see the connection? Read Isaac Asimov: "ALEXANDER THE GOD" (world's biggest bank swindler Alexander = Peter). "Peter Funk" is a synonym of SWINDLER in The Merriam-Webster Thesaurus.]

Newbie authortube girls - UNITE! Start a JOINT publishing house! Self-publish and advertise and buy and sell self-published books among yourselves! That is the only way to realize your dreams of becoming self-published authors! And a very easy way! To hell with Amazon and Patreon and their cohorts! BREAK their monopoly!

Best of luck to all authortube girls!

I could review or podcast excerpts from (for free, without your having to pay Me anything) SOME of your self-published books - but not too many books please - My time is limited - if you send Me (by mail) a free copy of the self-published books your editorial board selects for My perusal - I will be very glad to help your joint self-publishing house - I will give My home address later when you have set up your joint self-publishing house and have started publishing. Of the few authortube girls I have watched on YouTube till now, Natalia Leigh seems the most mature and most serious. Levity is fine, but serious hard work is a must for achieving success in any important project - such as setting up a joint self-publishing house.

I can VISUALIZE a very big JOINT SELF-PUBLISHING COMPANY jointly owned by thousands of cr. and non-cr. authortube girls, with MANY BRANCHES throughout America and UK and India, with first CEO Natalia Leigh (maybe), CEO term may be six months or one year or more, a CEO to be replaced at the end of her term by the next CEO.

It would be helpful to name your YouTube videos in 1, 2,3 order - as Camille Myrick has now started naming her videos. If you place your videos in random order, I have to waste My time, unable to know which ones are recently posted new videos, and clicking on videos I have already watched. I find this very irritating. Whereas all My blog posts have exact dates, YOUR dates are very unreliable and imaginary, as if all of you are time travelers/travellers. I find this very annoying, frankly. 

I don't know what the beverages tea and coffee have to do with anyone's writing. If the quality of My writing were to vary with the quality of tea or coffee or other food given Me by My consort whose quality of cooking is mostly substandard, My writing would be TRASH and NOT always perfect. I thank God from the bottom of My heart that the quality of all My writing (which is always perfect like God is Perfect) does not depend at all on the quality of food prepared by My consort (her quality of cooking is generally quite shocking but improves dramatically when any of My in-laws arrive and eat with Me, as happened at breakfast this morning).

WHO WILL GET THE MONEY?

I think cecelia ahern is a PEN NAME used by the author of "THE YEAR I MET YOU" (note the small letters c and a in cecelia ahern, who may be male or female), SO if this novel becomes a bestseller, "cecelia ahern" will get a lot of money, not Cecelia Ahern. # 

But wait!

Good news for Cecelia Ahern.

#I noticed today after I posted this text that the author's color photo inside the back cover of "THE YEAR I MET YOU", published by HarperCollins, is INDEED a color photo of Ms. Cecelia Ahern (nee?) seen on YouTube (although it seems she doesn't have a copy of the novel)!

I will add more stuff about Cecelia Ahern, which I find puzzling.

The following are listed opposite the title page of cecelia ahern: THE YEAR I MET YOU, under "By the same author":

By the same author:

P.S. I Love You 

Where Rainbows End

If You Could See Me Now

A Place Called Here 

Thanks for the Memories 

The Gift 

The Book of Tomorrow 

The Time of My Life 

One Hundred Names 

How to Fall in Love 

Short stories 

Girl in the Mirror 

Of the above books, I find that only one is advertised at the back of the book:

"LOVE, ROSIE previously published as WHERE RAINBOWS END"

["Fanmade Trailer - Where Rainbows End (Sophia Myles & Alex O' Loughlin) (3:11) / absolutelysophia (YouTube)]

[Alex = Alexander = Peter = Hitler]

[Peter & Eve = Hitler & Eva Braun]

Previously published as? Alternative names? Why? No one (other than Me) seems to have bought or seen a copy of THE COLLECTED WORKS OF A.J. FIKRY published by Little, Brown, but now it appears under a different title. I find the changing of a book's title so mysterious.

I quote from the biography of Cecelia Ahern printed beneath the color photo of her face (I find it odd that nothing is said about where in which country she lives nor anything about her relatives):

"Cecelia Ahern is an international bestseller*. She was catapulted into the spotlight* with her hit debut novel P.S. I Love You, which was adapted into a major movie. Her subsequent novels have captured the hearts of readers in 46 countries* ... her themes strike a chord with people in every continent, with over 15 million copies of her books sold*. As well as writing novels, Cecelia has also created several TV series including the hit comedy Samantha Who?, in the US."

Really? I don't find a single review of "Samantha Who?" on YouTube. And I find from Google that several writers have JOINTLY written Samantha Who? Here is what I find from Google about Samantha Who? -

A woman suffers from amnesia and is soon hit with bricks of truth from her past. She realizes that she hadn't been the nicest person to people and thinks of this new life as a shot at redemption.

First episode date: 15 October 2007

Final episode date: 23 July 2009

[Aha! So the TV series ended 11 years ago ... so no one can check or verify? Did any American watch the Americsn TV series Ssmantha Who? between 15 October 2007 and 23 July 2009?... These dates make Me recall that My "late" "dad" KRISHNA "died" on January 2, 2008, if I remember right.]

Awards: ...

Nominations: ...

WRITERS: Cecelia Ahern, Donald Todd, Jim Reynolds, Jessi Klein, Pamela Brown [Aha!], more 

I am sceptical/skeptical of hype indulged in by struggling publishers about their publications: international bestseller, 46 countries (why not all 190 countries or so?), 15 million copies have been sold (only 15 million copies? why not billions of copies?). I suspect that no one heard of neebie author cecelia ahern (ahern looks like ahem) until just a few days ago!

Dr. Wilfred Funk = "Dr. James" [character in THE YEAR I MET YOU; Steve/Peter is another character] = "Dr." "Dilip Goswami" ?!!!

From New York, PF/Christ told (phoned?) WF in Ghy to follow Me to Bombay, taking his "daughter" (daughter-in-law? - wife of PF?) honeytrap Pamela to trap Me? She failed to trap Me.

cecelia ahern

There must be thousands of females with the name MARY. Similarly, there must be MANY FEMALES who are named CECELIA and one or more unscrupulous or smart females who use the pen name "cecelia ahern" without the knowledge of original Cecelia Ahern. (I find it very strange that the first letters of first name and surname of "cecelia ahern", putative author of THE YEAR I MET YOU, are small letters c and a, which may have been done to avoid the hassle of facing litigation in a court, BUT mainly to use the daughter of an ex Prime Minister of Ireland to advertise the book, which would be so magnanimous of her. Ditto Gabrielle Zevin, putative author of THE COLLECTED WORKS OF A.J. FIKRY, originally published by Little, Brown. Cf. INFINITE JEST praised ecstatically in the novel but without mentioning the name of The Author. This is naughty, naughty.)
