...Scott to write “Shadow Man,” of which the premise is that there are human beings who have mutated into seven sexes. One of the planets in the book only recognizes the male and female sexes. Scott says she identifies with all of her characters??sometimes in ways she doesn’t realize immediately. Scott recalls a recent writing workshop she gave at her old high school. At the event, a student asked her if she had ever used her writing to work out an emotional issue. Although her first instinct...
...excellent; in this, her last show at the College, she demonstrates particular skill in drawing out dramatic tension in building the conflict between Christy and his father to its inevitable climax.

Although the makeup is perhaps too good considering that the daughters...
...Nashville by storm in 2000 with her huge hit “Born to Fly” from the album of the same name. Unfortunately, the accompanying music video left more to be desired. Although Evans, sporting a short denim skirt, showcased her pair of amazing legs, the other characters??stereotypical farm hicks and caricatures of the stern “American Gothic” couple—made the video seem ridiculous and amateurish even before the cheesy animated tornado showed up. The professionalism improved in the video for 2003s “Suds in the Bucket...
