– You just have to write more quickly.
– That's not much of a solution.
– Well, it makes sense to me. If your laptop is crashing every five minutes, you simply need to write more quickly. Or write shorter posts. Whichever works best.
– It's something of a constraint on my artistic ambitions.
– I think great artists manage to rise to these challenges. Brevity is an important skill to have. After all, you don't want to be churning out massively dull tomes by the cartload, do you?
– Don't I?
– Think of the great poets: crafting exquisite sonnets in a mere fourteen lines of perfectly formed pentameters. Or limericks: they're even shorter. And haikus. I could go on. But the point is that being succinct is not a hindrance to expressing whatever profundities you had in mind.
– Or I could get the laptop fixed.
