Roberta: Are you trying to give me nightmares?! (The answer is obviously yes, that is just like something I would do.)

It’s ‘mitochondria’, not ‘mytochondria’.

maybe. i am not sure. i like words that feel vaguely onomatopoeiac (which i can’t spell) even when they’re not literally.

yoshimoto ani, do you think one day one of us will write a ‘novel,’ then notice later it was just something we read somewhere & channeled?

Ellie: It depends how constipated I am, if you must know. ;)

Sack Posset: Hello and welcome, Sack. Saying you think I’m marvellous means you get to stay for free.

Roberta: Did I read ‘mytochondria’ in one of your pieces, maybe? It just came to me ‘out of nowhere’ which means I must have read it somewhere.

‘mytochondria’ is such a good word.

there’s definitely a good sort of ‘musty.’ like old book musty, & curiousity shop musty.

Oh man. How do you do it? How do the words come? Do you sit there with a furrowed brow, concentrating hard like when you need to take a shit but are constipated or does it just ooooze on out?
