Hello again and today is Monday, October 8, 2012. Now I've been told that to write correctly you have to follow a recepie per se. The recepie usually goes something like this: you need to cut sentences short so you have variety in length. You need to change words because new words are better words, you should never use double negatives, and so on. Now that you know about this method of writing you can use it if you like, but if you're like me, then you entirely disregard it. My logic is that having too many rules and constraints to a thinking process leaves little room to imagine ways to continue on in consant flow. When writing you want your piece to resemble a river; constantly ebbing and rising, conforming to the contours of your words. When you write you don't want it to be too clogged up with jargon or too edited. In denoting that period, in which oneself would express a desiring for a fleeting attempt at appearing aristocratic to the layman. Ok maybe the previous sentance was a bit of an extreme case, but its better to just put pen to paper or hand to key and let your mind pour out, this way your mind is already talking. If you're mind is talking, it should know how a conversation flows, and it should be trusted.
As always,
ZenMercury,
Keep calm, and don't not think I forget the rules.
