What’s one writing rule that you completely ignore?
One writing rule that I completely ignore? When I’m here, I ignore them all. I’m basically speaking through typing. I say things here in the way I’d speak them.
Besides the crappy sentence structure and mid grammar, as I do in real life, I change subjects with absolutely no segue.
Like I’m doing right now.
Remember my confession about Theo of Golden? It’s been on the NY Times Bestseller List nearly a year. I was so excited to read it. But, I didn’t like it, at all. Thanks to some good advice from fellow bloggers, I put it down and never picked it back up. Everything in that book was too damn perfect, too “storybook”.
I’m not finishing it and I don’t care.
Wednesday, I was at the bookstore in the college/university where I teach. I actually didn’t know they sold novels in there. Sounding like the most brainless person on earth, when I saw The Correspondent on their shelves (one of my all-time fave books), I exclaimed, “I didn’t know you guys sold books!”.
Anyway, I bought a book called “I LOVE YOUS ARE FOR WHITE PEOPLE”, I started reading it Wednesday afternoon and finished it last night. Now THAT’s a good book.
