Don't. Creative writing classes are there for your own entertainment and as an ego boost -- that is, if you're actually a good writer.

I got my short stories that I wrote in that class published. Another girl wrote a story about a girl who finds out she's the saviour of humanity and an angel/demon hybrid but also gets raped by her brother. Ripped lyrics from Lana del Rey's 'Gods and Monsters' and used it as dialogue. I think about that a lot.

Just got it in the mail - I've only read a few pages so far, but I think the grammatical acrobatics are fun overall. His screenplays were always full of creative ideas, so I'm excited to see how his creativity presents in novel form.

That's the opening of the first chapter, not the book overall.
Actual opening:
"It lands with a thunk, from nowhere, out of time, out of order, thrown from the future or perhaps from the past, but landing here, in this place, at this moment, which could be any moment, which means, you guess, it's no moment.
It appears to be a film."

Pretty decent opening lines, desu.
I'm excited to not leave my bed for a few days and read it through.

By losing weight and existing in solitude, I feel as if I'm going through a spiritual renewal. My body is being purified by my own loneliness. I will be free.

I'm also high as shit.

God this book is fucking fantastic. Also feels like I'm learning a lot about how old timey ships worked.
