circular

never write from the perspective you do not understand but never write an autobiography and call it fiction. rip up what you like and develop yourself, create a style within and without the structures which have come before and sell it to the minds, hearts or souls of the world. never get into advertising. always tell your parents you are making a living. affect a walk, an accent and a story which, like Raymond Queneau, you can use in your excersises du style, but instead of buttons and bus seats create drug-addled mothers and suburban horrors; these are the things which sell books. buy a pair of glasses and call yourself an intellectual. never be tempted to be a socialist. coffee stain your cigarettes then use them to punctuate your spoken word as commas, semi colons and dashes punctuate your writing.
