@andreagrimes Gay sex is so great that people just want to do that, and nothing else, is what he's saying. Imagine what the 90% are missing -
@andreagrimes I spend at least 47% of my day thinking about butt stuff, and I guarantee you that's less than Pat Robertson does. -

That’s a free one for Well Actually Twitter, yw

Which is hilarious considering the subject matter at hand. Pro-tip on writing tweets: read all the tweets before responding to one of them.

@andreagrimes I taught college freshman writing this year & regularly blew students' mind w/ this advice. They think writing is mystical. -
@andreagrimes I once heard that being a prolific reader is the apprenticeship to becoming writer, always loved that -
@andreagrimes Hunter Thompson did the same thing and started with Hemingway. -

This concludes your random Twitter lesson about a thing I think about all the damn time.
-
It is never too late to start doing that second thing. Once you realize you can command style and tone, you can command your own.
-
I am a pretty good writer, and the reason for that is 1. I read like crazy and 2. When I was a kid, I practiced writing like other people.
-
I will all day rather work with someone on developing their voice out of a good base than trying to force a ‘unique’ mess into readability.
-
I’m not saying plagiarize. I am saying that if something reads well, has a great tone and structure, you won’t fuck up by giving it a shot.
-
@andreagrimes when I was younger, I would straight-up re-type whole pages of writing I admired to get a feel for the rhythms the author used -
A lot of writers also express doubt that they should attempt to emulate other pieces of writing, or styles thereof. You should, though.
-
That means understanding structure, style, tone, venue, audience — everything you absorb when you read good writing.
-
Usually if I am editing something that is not great, it is because a writer isn’t sure, on a basic level, how to say something.
-
Strong writers know what words need to be used, how & when. You can’t get that without doing a massive load of reading.
-
@andreagrimes i actually teach that to my first-year legal writing students, who are angry that i suggest MORE READING but it's a huge help.
@andreagrimes még nem tweetelt.
