To tell the truth, I want to write sentences like water.

Junnosuke Yoshiyuki

Tap water is not good because it smells like chlorine, continues the writer. He hates a strange mixture. He excludes redundant behaviors of words such as "one octave higher tone," sucking up or something like that. "If it is May, only May is enough," he says. However, if he becomes more aware of it as writing manners, his sentences begin to twitch again. From his essay, "Like Water" ("An Essay Collection Of Junnosuke Yoshiuki, 3 Writer" edited by Gyorai Ogiwara).
