Okay....that's it.....where's the change-of-name form on this forum?

I refuse to spend the entire Fest answering the room phone with "NO, I'M THE OTHER RAINEY!!!"  ::)

I saw Secret Window tonight too. Johnny Depp and John Turturo were much better than the movie as a whole. It was reasonably close to the story, which, as I said, didn't do a lot for me; but Depp was fabulous, a bit surly, with some inspired lines. And I kinda liked the ending, which I'll not spoil here. I'll give it a C for content, an A+ for casting.

Writers, especially horror writers, tuckerize others to an alarming extent ("tuckerizing" being the practice of using a form of a real person's name, usually a friend, in a story). 
That's Great Marcus!! But what do writers call it when they use the real name of a friend in their fictional stories? In Elizabeth Massie's book, 'A House Divided', one Mr. Robert Issel(Hey.....that's me!) ;) appears in text as a trail-blazer of sorts.  ;D

Law and Order once had a character named Karlen....a female judge who survived an attempt on her life.  I recall wondering if someone associated with the show was an old New York theatre buddy of Johnny's and did that for a laugh.

An early on one, during the Moriarity years.  It was the episode about the woman offering alternative treatments for breast cancer- they are trying to contact other patients, and rattle of names, turns out none could be reached, since all had died.  My name is in that list.
