Agreed! There is certainly no one way to do almost anything, especially one as complicated as writing. By the way, what book is an example of what you mean?

10.10.2025 22:39 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0I prefer clarity over expressiveness. I want to know what the hell I'm reading. I tell my students, as literary artists we are not in the business of self-expression but of communication. Our art may start with self-expression but ultimately if you can't communicate your story - few want to engage.
