WRITING
The Cellphone Tale
JM was writing on his cellphone while breaking the rules
JM was considering what to do with his writing. He had new ideas he wanted to test soon and would give him some money outside the usual paradigm.
Most writing advice discouraged doing things like tapping a short story on your cellphone while waiting for your yoga class. And emojis were forbidden 🤷🏻.
His first rebellion had been to unfollow Tim Denning and every other influencer except Zulie Rane. Hey Zulie, if you are reading this, respect ✌🏻.
When he thought of the authors he admired since he was a kid, he reminded how the best where the ones that included cool details, like Richard Bach in Illusions, who made the first pages of his book look like a grease stained notebook to immerse the reader into the perspective of a mechanic.
That was the kind of stuff he liked. Empty stuff like listicles? Not so much. The only one he was planning to write was a playlist; because everyone deserves to have music in their lives.
Other than that, he was determined to write what he wanted, because only innovative people make it big. And if they don’t, they don’t care.
