re: Simmons continues ragging on Pelicans...

---

over 700 pages his style of writing got a little grating

just reading 700 words from him is bad enough. not sure i could handle that many pages

it's a very conversational style of writing, which i normally enjoy. but for whatever reason with him, i just can't get into it. i think it has something to do with what you said...

He really wants to be a comedy writer, except he's not as funny as he thinks he is

that's the only reason i can think of why i can't read his stuff without getting annoyed (at the style of writing)
