That, in itself, is something " , first Ahmed I prefer to indicate me as a writer or a female writer as the words man and woman in my opinion are not appropriate to describe a writer or an artist or any other profession , and the word woman in our Egyptian mind refers to older married females while we all are young people trying to make themselves a name in literature and art , all of this is a minor thing but the major one is that you said " That, in itself, is something " .. I don't understand why ? .. there is no intellectual difference at all between a man and a woman or a boy and a girl , that's what my father taught me since I was four or five years age - and by the way my father is from upper Egypt before he came to Cairo when he was young - , so I know in my heart that being a female doesn't mean that I must write about my dreams about prince charming or something like that , in my opinion a female writer has to write in a way makes readers don't know whether the writer is male or female unless they read the name on the book cover .. for example Agatha Christie was a very talented crime novelist and when you read her novels you can't identify whether she is male or female .. right ?<br><br>Anyway .. I'm very happy with your blog Ahmed which appreciates my play a lot .. Thank you very much and I hope you like my coming novel when I finish it – God Willing- , I'm glad to hear the opinion of a distinguished young artist and writer like you , have my best wishes of luck , success , and happiness ..<br><br>By the way too : this is the link of my play about Mozart group on facebook , my name on facebook is : Lamia Moukhtar , if just you wanted to add me on facebook someday or to look on my play group , best wishes and greetings again :<br><br>http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=104908166211332Lamia Moukhtarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16526604544020155600noreply@blogger.com
