@orionkidder Literature resembles theatre in that both work to portray a reality that doesn't exist by showing sufficient glimpses of irreality to convince the audience that… They.

@orionkidder Literature resembles theatre in that both work to portray a reality that doesn't exist by showing sufficient glimpses of irreality to convince the audience that… They. Are. There. Sparsity and pacing demands we show no more. Step back and it's a mess of words, often on paper, or it's wood panels painted on one side as homes or fields of flowers with flimsy furniture to sit on, if that. If we as authors, or playwrights, grab the audience's attention with story, it works.
Writing is the ultimate balancing act.

how are you doing?, How would you describe your writing style? -
@sfwrtr @orionkidder Hello
how are you doing?, How would you describe your writing style?Hello
how are you doing?, How would you describe your writing style?Ms Rose: If you are not a bot, I apologize. When you send the same question to multiple people without even personalizing it by reading their profile and finding some human connection, your style will have that effect. The effect of coming off as a bot. Bots have been doing this type of engagement for months now, eventually trying to sell some sort of service that turns out to be a scam—and writers are tired of it; so pardon me if I am mischaracterizing you. If your agent or publicist is running this account to give you a Mastodon presence, fire them. Your publisher? Talk to them about ruining your reputation. At this point, despite the spread of pretty books and publishing credits displayed on your profile, I feel someone has put up an AI storefront to masquerade as the author; considering the discussions that are current about this type of thing, if you are the real human you, you might want to act now.
PS: Bad grammar in your original contact question is the best way to signal how genuine you are.
