We know behavior is contagious.

Uggs, healthy eating, and using the phrase “at the end of the day.” Martial status, parenting style, spending habits.

Pretty much everything.

You do what people around you do.

But it’s not just for social stuff.

Creative quality and style, especially writing is contagious, too.

If you all you consume is Tweets, hip hop music, and Instagram quotables, it doesn’t matter if you were once a profound writer.

You’re bound to catch the “shitty writing” bug.

Moral of the story?

Shitty writing is like Ebola.

Stay the fuck away.
