Me writing about men like bad male authors write about women

‘He charged into the room, pert testicles bouncing gaily. I saw a scar & wondered if he’d had a vasectomy. He opened his plump lips, full of promise but annoying words came out...something about a football match’

Discworld QOTD, from Feet of Clay
No more kings. Vimes had difficulty in articulating why this should be so, why the concept resonated in his very bones. After all, a good many of the patricians had been as bad as any king. But they were...sort of...bad on equal terms. What set Vimes's teeth on edge was the idea that kings were a different kind of human being. A higher lifeform. Somehow magical.

Well, it seems Bluesky IS just @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com, @scalzi.com and @diane.dianeduane.com talking about the intricacies of writing, fountain pens and delicious recipes after all. I‘m very much happy with that.
Screenshot of Neil Gaiman quoting the Arte of English Poesie on how to interprete commas, colons and periods while reading aloud and John Scalzi reporting how reading allowed allowes you to find mistakes in your written words.
