The Dire Need For Approval

Tom Schreck
author of the Duffy Dombrowski Mysteries

Okay class, your assignment is to watch the video and answer these discussion questions:

1. What does the hound represent in the publishing world?

2. What fuels the screenwriters' denial?

3. What archetypal symbolism is embedded in the ham?

4. What is the secretary's name?

5. What does the hounds command to round up every small rabbit tell us about him?

6. Before you got an agent or got published would you have signed with this agent? If you are unsigned now would you like his address?

Your questions have left my head hurting like they do after watching some new wave French film. Ouch!
