King, who is certainly not male (nor is her protagonist, Mary Russell), and is white but (I believe) Jewish. Unemployed? Not hardly: she cranks out novels... really high quality... a couple of times a year, and has been doing that since the late Nineties. Mary Russell is, among other things, competent with a throwing knife; I'm rather glad she is fictional.Steve Bateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07587223243120009776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32487323.post-86067680290585624912014-06-07T08:13:54.849-07:002014-06-07T08:13:54.849-07:00Dear god!

I'm "a frustrated, unemployed, white adult male" who lives with his, ah, pre-estranged girlfriend who holds down the only job and the only earned income in the household (though we split expenses evenly, to a first approximation). Does that mean I have a short fuse and it's already been lit?<br /><br />Actually, I'm due to start receiving Social Security on 8/1, when I reach full retirement age (actually that happens 8/6). But I'll still be frustrated and unemployed and white and male!Steve Bateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07587223243120009776noreply@blogger.com
