“How do you get good at it?” Well, that depends
on you, and how much of you
you are willing to lose. You see, I have styles
and voices, but when I try

“What? Does spacy need an “e”?” See! That’s what
we are after, as people can write things
they aren’t about at all! But have you tried
pointing that out? They will say you are mad; they will talk
and talk without actually saying anything, so you must
be silent and have less compassion while I am going
all David Byrne with this kind of voice… But can you now
see how you need to stop listening? Else you will be awful at it;
just go on your own feel, at least for a bit.
And never, ever
ever have sex as if your mates are reading you either. That is the secret.
