Yeah, you're heading the right way.

>>8517956
yes very good

Don't read too much esoteric shit or you'll lose contact with reality.

Read some Thich Nhat Hanh. He's pretty comfy.

Whichever you want. I personally would add it as one whole work, but you can search for your 4-book edition and add each volume separately.

>>8517920
you're on the right path so far

People who work in Silicon Valley are smart enough to proofread their own docs.

I get tons of inquiries; usually 15-20 documents a week.

Most don't even ask me to proofread. They usually inquire about resume building and general "jazzing-up" of their essays.

I read it before I became a pseud but it felt like it was intentionally confusing and edgy to me. The Navidson Record parts of it I enjoyed, just not the main character's chapters.

If you read it as a satire/comedy then its a brilliantly funny book.

honestly, it's not a bad book. It's overly edgy and a little try hard but i felt the prose was pretty good and it really hammers it's point down aptly.
I do think it's kinda ridiculous Danielewski took 10 years to write this.

Brief research tells me that the "method of loci" or "memory palace" is the best technique. Most people seem to agree that visualization is the best way to remember words. Is it the best?

This 1953 Smith-Corona Sterling 5A is what I've written most of my stuff with. It's a sturdy beast with a light but firm response good for both touch typing and hunt & peck.

This is my best looking type writer. A 1949 Smith & Corona Silent is black enough to write a decent detective novel.


What do you have?

>>8517652

Pussy is love.

The childish idea of love is love as selfishness.

The mature idea of love is love as selflessness.

>>8517652
loving a woman so much that if she cheats on you you shoot her and her lover is so common that it is one of the main causes of homicide all over the world.

Was highly recommended to me by everyone. I should have known better. Only got about halfway through and it was worse than those fucking $1 harlequin romance novels.

It's called comic books
Hope that helps

>>8517521
unless you count a medieval miniature as a comic, I don't see them as ones.

unless you take something like the voynich manuscript and call it a comic.

I wrote a short-story similar but he's in Uni. It's very cringe to read tho

But they can and do, do you think the word "crack" sounds the same as "smooth"?

You bought it for 75 cents outside of a retailer, not sure what you expected.

Is TCoL49 really hard to find?
