Years ago, some friends and I were hysterical over various online dating user names, and I came up with HotT4U2Nite69, which still makes me laugh.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm gonna have to stick with CafeAuLait69 as my new and improved username
I see you more as a CafeAuLaitKickUrFace.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Or CaféOlé69. That's spicy!
Yeah, totally me.

Are you spicy? I see you as more of a cucumber dip, cool and creamy with a bit of dill.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
A sexy cucumber dip that can and will kick you in the head.
Butterscotch Stallion? Is that what it sounds like?
It's Owen Wilson, apparently.

Now I want to marry a blonde guy just so I can call him this in bed.

See now that's a personal ad that would pique my interest.

I used to be a blonde guy but now I'm snow white mummy dust.

Coding and Sleeping
Writing is an art, but it's also a craft and mastering both elements is difficult.
It has turned out to be a lot more mechanical than I thought, which is good for me. I don't have a poetic touch with words, but that doesn't seem crucial in a novel where too much poetry can get in the way. Sort of like really rich food, a poem is desert while a novel is your diet for a year.

Well, it helps to be able to evoke a scene or a moment but there are plenty of good writers who aren't high octane wordsmiths. And I don't think it's as much as matter as writing poetically as having a strong voice as a writer, which takes a while to develop, but is certainly within your range.
I mean, you're looser and have more of a voice in your Sang Sacre bits than you allow yourself in the novel.
