Writers: who are you go-to authors when looking at dialogue? Who are the masters? (Especially in novels, rather than short stories).

Enjoying the Olympics a lot but I wish @BBCSport commentators would stop saying the athletes "make it look so easy". They don't. They make it look good. They make it look like they've trained every day, all their life, because in all actuality they probably have.

Recently discovered the work of Eugene Marten (thank you @saderotica) and now I'm trying to read everything he's ever written. Check that sentence in the bottom paragraph, from Pure Life...

@saderotica You left and it turned cold again

[Matt Pucci @Matt_Pucci]

@saderotica I mean, these are pretty good 🤣😋

@kylerseibel This is the exact look the kids in my class give me when I glance up to see them reading a book we both know contains "inappropriate content".

@_TC1980 😂 Absolute bait, Tottman. Really made me smile.

Hey everyone -- been having a really bad mental health month. My dad keeps telling me I need to 'start paying rent'. Would really help if you could buy my book DEATH EGG so I can tell him I don't need to have a job because I'm a famous internet writer https://t.co/aZ194OPprN

@hangsawoman New Statesman? If so, I agree: it was wide of the mark and just came across as mean-spirited.

Wandering and pondering in the streets of Barcelona...

[Matt Pucci @Matt_Pucci]

Got stuck in Barcelona for a couple of extra days last week (nightmare, I know) so I went to the Palau de la Música Catalana and the MNAC, up on Montjuic, and I took some pretty pictures. (X only lets you post 4 at a time). Both provided "...an ecstasy of colours..."

@grahamjirvin Drug Church! That album is so good.

[kyle r seibel @kylerseibel]

ngl been a pretty dispiriting battle in publishing my collection, but occasionally i open up the final proof and read the first few pages and you know? it's good. it's a good book. fun and funny and nice. really hope it becomes a real thing people can hold in their hands one day

[Matt Pucci @Matt_Pucci]

@kylerseibel I actually wept after finishing Stoner. It's one of those books everyone says you should read, and you're like, yeah, yeah. It can't be *that* good. And then you read it.

[Matt Pucci @Matt_Pucci]

Great post from @craigwallwork...
