But ... she would have approved of you saying she "sucks"? Hmm... ... From: caiken4life To: flanneryoconnorfanpage@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, December...
Perhaps if she dumbed the word down a bit, you know, maybe powder it with an antebellum pout-drawl...but, would she have approve of me saying powder? Now there...
You are certainly entitled to your opinion, and I respect your gumption for expressing yourself so bluntly in a fan forum. I rather suspect that O'Connor might...
I'm not trying to hang you out to dry Robin (I doubt I could) but I would like you to explain in more detail your statement, `I love her (O'Connor's) work...
Dear Robin, Do you really think that Ms O'Connor wrote with 'didactic religiosity'? While I think it is true that, as Sally Fitzgerald noted, many people,...
Steve, I don't think it is so much in the intellectual department that Wooday Allen falls behind Flannery (though I'm not disputing that, either). For my...
Touche Paul, 'If Woody Allen had been Catholic...' sounds like the beginning of a very bawdy limerick eh? Steve ... __________________________________ Do you...
Robin, aren't we all didactic? Don't we all operate via some self imposed (received or accepted anyway/somehow) dogma? Didactic, dogmatic, doctrinal: aren't...
Hi, I'm solomon. I'm a Rome, GA native living in Rochester, NY. Started reading Flannery O'Connor when I was 14 back in Georgia. Had a big crush on her then...
Hi solomon, I am a musician and songwriter, not currently in a band. I can't say that my music is directly influenced by Flannery. I do know that there is at...
Nah. Havenıt come across that, actually. I know some lady named Shannon Worrell did a song called Hazel Motesı, but not sure if itıs the same song. A...

I am very happy to join this forum which is dedicated to the art and wit and wisdom and insight of the inimitable Flannery O'Connor. I am a devoted reader of...
Welcome to the group, but there is very little activity on this board. Only every now and then. Do you write? Poetry? Short stories? There used to be a picture...
Hi Witt, Thank you for your welcome. Yes, I write quite a bit, and have for years...poetry, short stories, essays and plays. Some have been published or...
Hello Solomon, as a composer of, largely, intsrumental music I'm not really sure how my literary influences show up. I know they do but it's hard to point the...
Oh, so glad that you do some writing. I will send you an invitation to join the poetry boards of which I am a member. I have two little books to my credit. If...
Hello Witt: I saw the photograph of the rooster posing as a peacock (exotic and dazzling tail feathers harnessed to his plain white-feathered torso), and I...
My mistake - shoulda checked ye olde map! Being Canadian and doing a bit of traveling will always get you someone who says "Canada? Do you know Wayne...
Alexander, you're not the only one who feels like they're going blind. As for that genius? You'll have to track down Mermaid Scar-- the founder. She hasn't...
Not to use this group for frivolous self promotion (I guess the 'frivolous' is debatable), but my Flannery-inspired band, The Lobster Quadrille, will be ...
Is any member of this group interested in discussing the art and mind -- the genius -- of Flannery O'Connor, as opposed to petty griping about site graphics &...
Paul Why would your current post not be considered "petty-minded griping"? Just curious. I think the group colors, indeed, were ill-chosen. For the person...
I think the 2nd Paul has offered a very balanced perspective. If we wanted to read dry, purely academic considerations of Ms. O'Connor's work (which many of...
I am always interested in discussing the art and genius of Flannery O'Connor (alas, I have insufficient knowledge of her mind, though I am sure it was quite...
