two types of writers - ones who figure out what resonates with the audience and then double down on that the rest of their lives - ones who are seeking surprise for themselves in their writing the former has a half life of around 10 years while the latter is really prolific or an inconsistent genius

Love that! I hadn’t articulated it as looking for surprises but I identify with the second one. I use writing to double down on my special interests, and let them guide me down rabbit holes. Sometimes, I manage to turn those into a pitch that will interest a pub and that feels like sharing a secret w the world.

And this shows up in the styles of writing too. If you’re constantly seeing surprise, you’re writing about things that are hazier to you and your language will reflect that https://warpcast.com/vgr/0xff3892df
