Comments on: Big-Ass Nachos. Tao Lin uses too many Quotation Marks. Mary Oliver Poet. Methadone, Lay off Friend (my advice).

Thanks for the shout-out. Not sure how I just saw this, but it seems appropriate that I did just that today. Glad you enjoyed the poems. I also very much like paul guest’s work.

I liked reading your thoughts on writing by hand vs. computer.

Hmm. I’ve always preferred computer, I’ve only written a few stories by hand.

I like the idea of challenging myself to slow a little, though, and trying pen and paper more often. Tactile change, hmmm.

Blabber.

Tao:

Oh, ok. That person sounds sadly.

No worries. Maybe someone reads my reply, gets an MFA, and finds true love. Etc.

Tao Lin:

Why don’t you just get an MFA? What would an MFA do for you?

1.) Give you free time to write, years, no job.
2.) Pay you to write. For years.

Isn’t that basically a grant?

Any other grant stuff I know is professor grant stuff.
