      i did... and then more, i guess - how long is full graveyard book, as he reads it? tiny part of me hopes that he gives up writing and will be full time story-reader and audio-book-voice :) and it is something, because i greatly admire and love his writing.

      What you meant I believe is the Cohen thing about the best things in life according to him are "hot water, good dentishtry and shoft lavatory paper".
      Awesome quote and thank you for getting me to remember it :)

    I would love to have tea with him and some other writers that I adore: Gail Carriger, Victoria Aveyard, maybe J.K. Rowling if she'd ever come down from Scotland, and Robert Aspirin if he was still alive. This is what makes me want to write novels and short stories for all kinds of people.

    "Moisture" is a wonderful word when kept in a meteorological or environmental context but "moist" seems like it is only used passive aggressively to induce cringe and shudder.

    a semicolon tattoo has another meaning too, it is mental health related. something about depression and self harm and overcoming it. maybe... I'm not certain.

      I think maybe he knows that. An ampersand has a similar meaning of resilience and having more to live for.

    Least favourite word: "Moist." Amen to that! Combine it with "Plinth," and you are off the Creep-o-Meter scale.

    • @davidlean1060

      I don't mind plinth, probably Sam Beckett has used one as a prop in his plays. When Beckett uses a plinth, they become transcendent!
