I completely understand the attraction to leave Twitter and come back to it again. It seems like a good way to clean the slate or restock the shelves, if you will, with only the people you like. More efficient than deleting followers/following... About the kind of trying writing that is the topic of this post (it's "moisissure" by the way, you need to flip your esses!), I can't say I'm a fan but I'll read it if I feel the rawness is justified. I just read Stephen Golds story in the Gone crime anthology and the ending chilled me to the bone. It's exactly what you talk about. You also mention American Psycho and the first time I tried to read the book, I got to a point where I threw the book all across the room. I picked it up later and finished (and I re-read it recently to see if the bite was still strong. It is). So it's a matter of balance, I suppose.
It’s not letting me edit the post on my phone so I’ll have to correct the French on my laptop later. Serves me right trying to be smart. Good catch, thanks!
Good interview. Not familiar with many of the authors mentioned, but the ideas come through a little bit, intriguing me, perhaps hoisting me out of my current level of comfort if I get around to deeper discovery. Twitter isn't pleasing me right now because I'm not seeing posts from all the writers I used to enjoy following. I'm never sure if they've left the platform or left me, so I have to go out searching for them, which means sometimes I've forgotten their names. Not much puts me off in writing. Movies will disgust me or scare the shit out of me, but good writing will carry me along no matter how horrific.

Anytime you need something in French, give me a buzz. It's my native tongue...
This was great, the q's and a's. You guys have a wonderful rapport

Bookmarking this for later reading, but I'm very excited. You both are gifted writers and I'm sure this'll be great.
