ive never understood minimalist writing before, ive more or less pushed it to one side, but ive had this going round my head for a few days and the more i think about it the more there is to think/the happier i feel. Thanks for opening my eyes.

are there really 35 of these, or do you just like doing your numbers to confuse everyone? yes a good thing to do with tears, musn’t let them fall on the fresh pen and ink work and make it blotchy (except when that effect is specifically called for)
John Douglas, 29 days ago
