I am a singer. I have sang gospel and r&b. I, however am now interested in singing smooth jazz. I was once told that I imrovise well. And as well with the singers, I feel that as you improvise, you are feeling what you are feeling for the moment and adding, and coloring as you go and never taking away from originality.

But they don’t just want the list, or suggestion, they want the short story that’s going to make it stick as well. So, for example, we get his listing of what actors are cool, which begins with a grammatical mini-lecture about the word cool. The writing teacher in me loves it. King also appeases his editors with the annual top 10 lists. But ultimately, I think King also “keeps it real” by writing about things that matter to him. And in a column that is mostly irreverently upbeat about popular culture, his reflection on Anna Nicole clearly came from a heartfelt, slight self-identification with the harsh reality of America’s celebrity factory.
