I've been thinking the same thing myself lately. >Every artist is going to get bad press sooner or later... critics after all, >get paid to criticize. If they didn't state an opinion, they wouldn't get >paid. Now, I wouldn't expect anybody on here to really be >"pro-Jewel-bashing." I am totally pro-Jewel-bashing! I think everyone needs some bad press so they can improve what they do 'n junk. Secondly, I think People has a lot of good writers, and I would have prob. wrote the same stuff about Jewel they did, I didn't want to go get her book, because I think that a lot of poets after someone offers them money to write something, they are just thinking about the money and not what to write. Like Charles Bukowski, Jack Kerouac (i.e. after he wrote On The Road he sorta went crazy, like Neal Cassady did for being one of the main people in the book) it's just not the same writing from ur heart, and writing for money. Just my little shpeal on everything. Love Ya Long Time, Lora P.S.
