I like the way J.D. Salinger writes. I wonder...If Holden Caulfield went to school with me, would we be friends? Or would I be one of the people he called a "phoney?" I think we would be the ones chilling together, badmouthing society and the superficiality of it and the majority of the people who make it up. And then we'd go right along being phonies, because that's just what we do.
I'd like to write something like the 'Catcher in the Rye.' Maybe something a bit less depressing with less profanity, but definitely something that involves coming of age and realizing truth.
I'm not sure why, but I really like stream of consciousness books and existentialist stuff. They just seem so much more sincere and real than other genres.
I'm just afraid of writing anything remotely vulgar. I wouldn't want my parents to read half the stuff I've written.
