I thought through, typed out, cleaned up, and sent off a few small paragraphs about some things I love.
It may not seem like much, but that’s just about the most difficult thing I can trick myself into doing. I cannot slam dunk, but I also cannot argue with myself that I could do so, and do so every day.

Sheila Heti is quoted as saying she spent time (at 23 or 24) turning herself into a machine that wrote stories. I’d like to imagine becoming an essay machine. All those comparisons and connections to be explicated and explored.
Unlikely without effort. We’ll see.
