The 8th graders at the school where my son teaches had to do a project on a famous writer from Massachusetts. There are many to choose from, of course. The list includes such heavyweights as Longfellow, Hawthorne, Alcott, Thoureau, Emerson, Dickenson and Kerouac.
One student named Alex chose a living author who came to their school last year to talk about writing:
Emerson Schmemerson!

It's a good thing those crappy promos get written under a pen name. Had Alex included any of them, he might have been expelled...

Someone just guaranteed himself a fiery death in the next crappy promo.

Yeah, like I don't already get killed off in every promo. A fiery death will at least make my final scene more memorable. Plus, I think it pays more than regular deaths per CPAG (Crappy Promo Actors Guild) guidelines...
