I especially loved: “It’s personal stories with beautiful thoughts in them, as well as the ability of the author to write in an open prose, where they leave space for the reader to float and imagine.”
And your reflections on Yehudis are perfect. She and her prose land on me the same way.
I wish someone had seriously pushed me to write when I was younger, even if I wasn't publishing, it's certainly one of the most rewarding things out there. You should send this letter!
...such a great letter this round brother...i mean they always are but this one shone on me..."The music is not in the notes, but in the spaces between them, wrote Debussy. It’s not the notes you play; it’s the notes you don’t play, said Miles Davis."...there is something poetic about you writing this letter and not sending it that sings those silent missing songs...
Loved this Silvio.

What a beautiful invitation and call to action not just to your friend, but anyone really.

Another great letter. I'm getting inspired to try this technique out!

My only question after reading this is, why wouldn’t you send it? It’s beautiful! Hahaha
