@theoryjoe1 If Robert Walser walked someone into a room I'd skip to the next story
English
The main reason to write fragmentary autofiction is to avoid the pain of getting characters in and out of rooms.

everyone who enjoys reading novels should try to write a scene. even a paragraph of a scene. try to get someone in and out of a room. will change how you read forever

@godspeed_aflame Grouper's Dream Loss / Alien Observer will make you wise
English
@bernardtjoy Thanks. Halfway through Omensetter's Luck and feel like it's indebted to something I haven't experienced yet
English
@moon_is_sharp No. That would work out badly. Start either with As I Lay Dying or Light in August. The latter if you want a more standard narrative and the former if you are looking for more of a taste of the experimentalism.

Name a better one. We'll wait.

I sincerely think this the best American novel of the 20th century.

@franzsherbert Frankly I could learn chess but not how to pull off that fit

I'm the first Annapolis-born man to read Dictionary of the Khazars at the Castle Shannon McDonald's

I've been repeating "the first Nigerian to play chess at the Louvre" in my head ever since I saw this. Well on its way to becoming a permanent brainworm

First Nigerian to play chess at the Louvre 🇫🇷-The world’s most prestigious museum.

@WB_Baskerville An "inside baseball" question - do Catherine Project group leaders see and/or approve applicants themselves or is that done by administrators? Never have known who the application's audience is.
English
Actually struggling w/this right now - kind of want to make a poll but seems pointless given how small my account is. Anyway considering Proust, Moby-Dick (never read) as well as Crime & Punishment, Infinite Jest (read before) & the Iliad (technically read but barely remember).

@jhendersonYT After a bunch of Jeeves and Wooster, I'm going to start some short stories. I have no idea what to expect
English
Reading a lot of Wodehouse these days. The books are all the same. I do not mind, I just keep reading.

When every other person in my orbit was listening to Modest Mouse like they were the Beatles in 1966 I kept thinking dear god where have the sex & drugs gone

@DaveKluge Great guitar arrangements on the 1st MB20 album

Late-90s post-grunge pop might’ve been peak.
Third Eye Blind, Goo Goo Dolls, Matchbox Twenty, Blind Melon, Marcy Playground, Gin Blossoms, Collective Soul, Fastball.
Those albums sound as good today as they did 30 years ago.

@billyjoel90210 @ConnerHabib 100% wrong I've seen video evidence

@ryanhasbadtaste I'm on a streak of early weird short fiction - Lord Dunsany, Clark Ashton Smith, Ambrose Bierce, Arthur Machen, etc and Hodgson's House on the Borderland is next.
Never was a Lovecraft fan, and I'm finding I love all these writers that influenced him.
English
interesting (and probably shows where my head and heart are at) that two of the standout books i’ve read this year are weird fiction from over a century ago — William Hope Hodgson’s THE NIGHT LAND and now Robert Chambers’s THE KING IN YELLOW.

RT @eroscestlavie_x: It’s Two-Headed Boy Part 2. You want a deep cut? Dig deeper bud. Brush the dirt off. Yup, Two-Head Boy Part 2 again. S…

@JaycelAdkins I can vouch for Jaycel's tips here - I was in the Blood Meridian group he led! Opening question was so helpful. Sometimes it was not at all where the group wanted to go, and sometimes we discussed it exclusively. Either way it gave us momentum.
English
What makes a (g)ood reading group:
1. Reading a Great Book.
2. 8-12 curious/kind Readers
3. Manageable reading schedule based on text.
4. Rotating ‘opening question’
5. Sense of humor
6. No outside texts, just THE BOOK
7. Two Hours per conversation
8. Meet WEEKLY
9. Mandatory

@mcmansionhell How would you recommend someone find a real deal psychoanalyst?
English
@jhendersonYT Make sure the central fan is turned off. Otherwise it will circulate the warm air out of the room with the space heater. Don't run the clothes dryer, which pulls cold air into the house
English
Our heat seems to have gone out. HVAC can’t come until tomorrow. Damn.
