'Thoughts'! Oh my! Here's to that very first book @josephfasano.bsky.social and to the parents who treasured it!
This chokes me up. A while ago I went to visit my parents, who are not "literary" people, and this is what I saw. The "book" on the left is apparently something I wrote when I was 10. The rest are what I've done with my life.

How to write: Stop not writing. Keep your butt in the chair. Write really bad small sections of the whole—passages, moments, episodes, memories—til you have an incredibly shitty 1st draft. Then take out the boring parts, the lies and pretensions. Then write a better 2nd draft.

All My Precious Madness by Mark Bowles review – biting humour | Fiction | The Guardian
This keenly observed debut brilliantly captures the internal monologue of a misanthrope, in a portrait of intellectual melancholia
