Reading can be such a wonderful generative thing when you let go of any ideas about what you should read or what you should want to read, and go instead to what draws your interest and maybe even more so, your joy

This year I’m going to try to read and write stories, make more room in my life for art, eat pho, see the ocean again, go for long walks, take some trips with my friends and explore the east coast.

Reading mythology, short stories & Shakespeare and listening to the Beatles. Getting back to all the good things that brought me joy as a younger person, and it feels great.

I like some Cormac books just fine— and lots of people I love, LOVE him — but I’m so bored by the “your art should drive you to suicide” romanticization. I want short stories, and novels, and art, that drove the artist to joyful exaltation.

It’s great to have friends who know a lot about art and music and can give you recommendations. It’s even better to actually listen to those recommendations. Act like you’re taking a great college course and do the homework. It’s so rewarding.
