ALL of this. Encourage people to try new words, to mess them up, to experiment with vocabulary, to learn complicated adjectives and verbs and nouns, because words are fun.
Also, don’t be a jerk.

i want to be
your first fire:
i want to be the first lick
of flame upon your naked wrist,
setting your veins alight with
blue fire, cool paralysis.
my heat will seep into the
bloodlines beneath your cheeks,
split into the inflamed whisperings
of my name under your skin;
itching, aching, burning, scarred.
i want you to feel the trembling
premonition of dried heat under
heavy eyelids, and be afraid
of how i did consume you.(h.a)

“It’s such a great group of people, which I think is a really rare thing after a show has been on for so long, that we genuinely like each other… I think any of us would really do anything for each other, legitimately, and I’m not just saying that because this is being recorded. We would just help each other out in any capacity, and we spend so much time together – every morning, every afternoon, every night and holidays and weekends, and so it’s just like a dysfunctional family, for sure.” - Michaela Conlin

I keep putting this time limit on myself, to get a novel written, to get one published, while I’m still young so I can be seen as a wunderkind, young protege. But how many young protégés had a great career that lasted their whole life?
