MAKIN THE LAW MAKIN THE LAW

I'm in a writing group and I've discovered that I can't read for shit, all the various tones of voices, shades of meaning, etc. that I put into my writing to make my writing read as a voice don't help my actual voice to sound like a voice when I'm reading. Whereas I can speak well and animatedly, even though I "um" and "you know" and [laughs] far too much (and haven't spoken much for a formal audience). I would probably go for the notes thing if I ever had a "paper" to give. But I'd try to make sure it was recorded.
