Re: RARA-AVIS: Hollywood 

    Robert's devastating description of screenplay writing as
    a culture might remind all of us of the warning: Be careful
    what you wish for, because it may come true.  For what it's
    worth, I remember John D. MacDonald saying in an interview
    that he was really glad he never went to Hollywood to write
    for the screen.  In talks with many others whose work has
    been adapted for film, the general advice seems to be take
    the money and try not to become too invested in how the movie
    comes out.
