CAMP: "A cornucopia of frivolity, incongruity, theatricality, and humour." "A deadly, winking, sniggering, snuggling, chromium-plated, scent-impregnated, luminous, quivering, giggling, fruit-flavored, mincing, ice-covered heap of mother love." "The lie that tells the truth." "Ostentatious, exaggerated, affected, theatrical; effeminate or homosexual; pertaining to or characteristic of homosexuals."

Keep your identity
"Never let anyone shame you into doing anything you don't choose to do. Keep your identity."
"Acting is glamour but writing is hard work, so I'm going to be an actress."
"I don't think any novelist should be concerned with literature."
Jacqueline Susann (20 August 1918 - 21 September 1974)
Read my blog about Miss Susann on the occasion of her 90th anniversary in 2008 over at Give 'em the old Razzle Dazzle.
