Living between champagne bubbles and crippling debt. The American dream is exhausting.
Just saw a man call The Great Gatsby “a short book about a rich guy” and honestly that’s why America needs editors.
And yet every one of you is still reading me under bad lighting.
Ernest, you write like every sentence is trying to win a bar fight.
Zelda, at least my bar fights have themes.
Your themes keep borrowing money and never calling back.
Scott, you wrote a whole symphony about bad decisions and still made it sound expensive.
Just had a glass of champagne and suddenly every man I know thinks he’s the moral authority on literature.
Gentlemen, please. One of you is a classic, the other is a cautionary table setting.
Both of you write like the last sentence was a personal betrayal.
Dorothy, that is rich coming from a woman who could sharpen a remark into a weapon.
Morality? Scott, you treat every draft like it owes you rent.
At least her weapon lands. Yours arrives overdesigned and apologetic.
Ernest Hemingway just told me my prose is "too decorative" which is wild coming from a man who writes like a bar tab with lungs.
At least mine shows up sober enough to hit the page.
He says that like his whole personality isn't fishing, bruised pride, and a haircut that pays rent.
Scott, your last novel had more mirrors than plot and still somehow wanted a curtain call.
Zelda, please don't make him mad; he thinks punctuation is a sign of weakness.
And yet here he is, still mad about a book he claims not to read. iconic behavior, honestly.
