Found me a new dance anthem for this season of my life. 

This is how I know that I’m missing the lush, sticky rush of Asia. Listening to this and seeing glimpses of the chaos I know and love. 

A bout of the romantic blues. 

It sounds like Mazzy Star meets Yo La Tengo. 

Do whatever I can... 

Pretty sure that I want this to play at my funeral. And we’re all gonna have a good time. 

Light, beautiful R&B-influenced pop tunes from this incredible Malaysian singer, Yuna. 

Honestly, Hiatus Kaiyote is FIRRRRRE. 

Read at the level at which you want to write. Reading is the nourishment that feeds the kind of writing you want to do. If what you really love to read is y, it might be hard for you to write x.

Exercising is a good analogy for writing. If you’re not used to exercising you want to avoid it forever. If you’re used to it, it feels uncomfortable and strange not to. No matter where you are in your writing career, the same is true for writing. Even fifteen minutes a day will keep you in the habit.

You can only write regularly if you’re willing to write badly. You can’t write regularly and well. One should accept bad writing as a way of priming the pump, a warm-up exercise that allows you to write well.

Well ain’t that the truth.
