Re: I wanted to become a psychiatrist because of a Sidney Sheldon book. Camilla Send a noteboard - 24/03/2010 08:48:39 AM
The desire mutated into wanting wanting psychology.

I think the book was The Naked face. It was Sheldon's first novel, and he wrote it because the plot was too convoluted for a movie - he wrote screenplays at the time.

Anyway. I still sometimes wonder if I should shift paths and become a psychologist.

What else? I dunno. I mean, if you think about it, a lot of the stuff I do and know comes from books. A lot of my personality is formed not just towards books but because of them.

OOH I have tried to lick my elbow. I don't remember the book in question.


Even now, that gives me a horrible urge to lick my elbow. It is like a switch in my head.

Have you received my letter yet?
