drinking with Jo

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Sydney, 2001.03.02

Tonight we were out celebrating Jo's 28th birthday. I started the evening out by plying her with Tiquila. She said - in quite a wobbly state some hours later - that I was a bad man, but that was 'why we love you'. It's true, people love me cos I buy them drinks on their birthday.

Remove everything that has no relevance to the story. If you say in the first chapter that there is a rifle hanging on the wall, in the second or third chapter it absolutely must go off. If it's not going to be fired, it shouldn't be hanging there.

—Anton Chekhov
