On thing though that we do have to address is who will buy this book?
Who is our target audience? ... you mean..... besides Brokehalics, right?
My take is it has to be a book that years from now you could teach a sociology class from.
I am sorry to say this but the only people intrested in a book about how the moderators got this site running and what this movie meant to the producers of BBM is me, you and the other brokaholics out there.
Lets face it, this is not going to be the book inspiring people to see the movie it will be the movie that will inspire people to read the book looking for the anwsers that we came to this forum to find. This book should be just that; a reflection of the emotional turmoil that is shared by all viewers, both the hope and the despiar.
It should also contain some of the detailed insightful posts about the caracters and movie scenes.
Lastly this book should contain some post that attest to the injustice Gay people still face. Let us never forget Mattew was killed in wyoming not in 1963, not in 1983 but in our own era, 2 years after Annie published her short story.
We have the opportunity to send a message, of comfort to the distraught, of hope for the eternal optimists (like myself) and of surport for those making the hard desicions about themselves.
and last but not the least we have the message of change; if you are appalled that people have to live thier lives in such fear and hypocrisy guess what? That has not changed..... but, guess what? We can make it change, we can fix it! You, me and everyone that watches BBM or reads our book
