I shouldn't have included novelists and playwrights, but the novelists were for the most part also essayists who had an impact apart from their novels (I care enormously about considerably more novelists than just these), and the simple truth is that playwrights like Coward and Orton were so influential in making me who I am, and in ways that might easily be overlooked, that I felt compelled to mention them (again, I care enormously about considerably more playwrights than just these).Dale Carricohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02811055279887722298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956838.post-36731967043286185222009-12-28T17:27:44.220-08:002009-12-28T17:27:44.220-08:00Dear Dale, I have many questions about this lovely...Dear Dale, I have many questions about this lovely lil' quip - but I am more interested in why I didn't pick up any visual artists (especially film makers) on your list of "people who made me like this?"

Which ones?Jarretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14866271854113344095noreply@blogger.com
