The object of art is not to make salable pictures. It is to save yourself.

“The Egg”
Kinda funny. Kinda grim. Reminds me a little both of#KatherineDunn ‘s Geek Love and #jamesjoyce ‘s Dubliners. I loved the resistance to self improvement culture! But I also love that culture going back to #BenjaminFranklin ! This story makes me want to read Winesburg, Ohio, and I had never wanted to read that collection before!

Latest read, Death in the Woods (1926) by Sherwood Anderson, from the collection of the same name. The narrator recalls an older, mistreated Midwestern woman and the events that led to her freezing to death.
Haunting.
Anderson may be the most modern writer of his generation, his prose is direct and streamlined, his small town themes a major influence on Hemingway, Faulkner, Wolfe, Terkel, Mailer, and Erdich.

@haikushack Here are some of mine:
#sherwoodanderson
#raybradbury (who wrote at one point that Anderson was one of his role models, and now I can't unsee it)
#williamshakespeare (not for the usual reasons)
#geoffreychaucer

Also, one of my primary inspirations as a writer wasn't a writer himself. I'll just leave that there in the interest of not getting myself started.
