Write something in the style of an author

Guess who others are emulating

Я тaк пoнимaю, чтo вepa ecть cпocoбнocть дyхa. Oнa вcё paвнo чтo тaлaнт: c нeю нaдo poдитьcя. Hacкoлькo я мoгy cyдить пo ceбe, пo тeм людям, кoтopых видaл нa cвoeм вeкy, пo вceмy тoмy, чтo твopилocь вoкpyг, этa cпocoбнocть пpиcyщa pyccким людям в выcoчaйшeй cтeпeни. Pyccкaя жизнь пpeдcтaвляeт из ceбя нeпpepывный pяд вepoвaний и yвлeчeний, a нeвepия или oтpицaния oнa eщe, eжeли жeлaeтe знaть, и нe нюхaлa. Ecли pyccкий чeлoвeк нe вepит в бoгa, тo этo знaчит, чтo oн вepyeт вo чтo-нибyдь дpyгoe. — Ha пyти

YA tak ponimayu, chto vera yest' sposobnost' dukha. Ona vso ravno chto talant: s neyu nado rodit'sya. Naskol'ko ya mogu sudit' po sebe, po tem lyudyam, kotorykh vidal na svoyem veku, po vsemu tomu, chto tvorilos' vokrug, eta sposobnost' prisushcha russkim lyudyam v vysochayshey stepeni. Russkaya zhizn' predstavlyayet iz sebya nepreryvnyy ryad verovaniy i uvlecheniy, a neveriya ili otritsaniya ona yeshche, yezheli zhelayete znat', i ne nyukhala. Yesli russkiy chelovek ne verit v boga, to eto znachit, chto on veruyet vo chto-nibud' drugoye. — Na puti

Worth reading, or pretentious self indulgent garbage?

Also same for JR by Gaddis or Against the day by pynchon

How does a non existent social life guy get dates or casual sex in the UK? I've had many many prostitutes, now I want a girl around my own age (23).

I have no social media so I can't use tinder. Internet dating seem hopeless desu due to the male female ratios. Approaching / all that PUA stuff doesn't happen in the UK. Joining random interest clubs solely to hit on women seems pathetic.

Also are there any self help books that will literally help me in significant ways if i apply their lessons?

>"Aah, Aaah-non, you were in the same Shakespearean Hegelian Hermeneutics seminar as Cynthia and I at DePoncey College! I remember you, you presented that paper about Stirnerian Metaphysics. It was divine! We're just out doing some silk underwear shopping before a two week cruise in the Gulf of Mexico on Chaddeus the Third's yacht. See you next term, ciao!"
