"At last I have finished the first part of The City and Its Uncertain Walls, and I think I am now able to dispense with my reflections. Reading the first chapter immediately made me think of Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World. Now, after reading all 26 chapters, the entire first section, I must admit, there is not one thing new here. Everything that I've read feels like something I've seen before. /1" — Jan 07, 2025 12:09AM

“Read, read, read. Read everything -- trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You'll absorb it.
Then write. If it's good, you'll find out. If it's not, throw it out of the window.”
― William Faulkner
