“I just wish I loved playing guitar “ - I wonder about that kind of thing a lot. Onstage, with other instruments, in front of audience - that’s different , right? . But alone, in a room with just you and your limitations - are endorphins even part of the deal?
Mason! I have to tell you that what I love so much about your writing is how able you seem to sound like you, even though, yes I don't really know you but your voice is what I enjoy most about your work. I wanted to let you know this in case you were ever in doubt. I find it hard to write in my own voice without sounding pretty obnoxious :) Had to pass on this note after reading Viv talk about how hard she finds it to make her art sound like her. As a reader, I feel you're flawless at it!
I love this: "I experiment and try to recreate the sounds of animals and other noises"!
Now, I'm trying to figure out the writer version of that. Maybe writing sentences in the voice of other authors? Asking my cat to co-write a post?
“Every day the task seems hopeless and I feel like giving up. I lie on my bed a lot, just holding the guitar, feeling like a fraud.”
I could use it right now. Thank you.
Holy crap, it’s John Cuneo! 😍
P.S. Thank you for the shoutout!

I’m pretty sure I need to see „Exhibition“, though it also frightens me (!)
I can’t stop thinking about Angelica Hicks on Instagram re-creating the face part of this costume: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CkbtkrTjHOU/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=
Thank you for this. I love it!
An anthropomorphic worm just doesn’t suit you.
I didn't know about Viv Albertine's book or acting, so interesting, thanks!
