Flosso and his Philosophy

Last year there was a program on tv called Flash Forward. Although axed after the first series, not a good look, I learnt a valuable lesson, from a character aptly named Flosso, that has stuck with me since, "all villains smoke, we know this." Well I thought some did but I didn't know that it was a universal fact, thanks for that Flosso. I was obviously behind the times. It moves me on to my main point that all writers drink coffee, right? Each stereotypical character in life has to have one defining feature and for writers it has to be coffee. As such since I absolutly detested coffee I felt I couldn't be seen in the real working world as a true writer. Something had to be done, I felt it was necessary for me to continually drink coffee until I had learnt to stomach it for the good of my future career. I began cautiously with a iced coffee latte. I was unsure of the lingo in starbucks but about 10 minutes and some wierd  looks from the staff later I had my latte. I must admit it wasnt the best experience, but I drank it and I was proud. Next I became a bit too full of myself and thought I could stomach actual coffee, I was wrong and had to add about 3 heaped spoonfuls of hot chocolate in to change the taste. It turned out well and I thought I had pioneered a new drink in the coffee world. I was devastated when I found it was named a mocha. But for now I'm sticking to the mochas. Its not as far as I wanted to get but at least I feel a little bit more like a writer.
