Just Like Honey on a Hammer

To ancient people I never met, "Mell" meant both "hammer" and "honey." This encapsulates my ideal writing style: to hit like honey. No interest in languorous-ness. Viscosity is the enemy. (Resistance to flow.) You have to flow, but flow fast, & keep flowing.

Say little, but express much. Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee. (Bees make honey.)

Write like a hammer laced with honey.
