Be yourself and your readers will follow you anywhere.
Try to commit an act of writing
and they will jump overboard to get away.

I hate ingratitude more in a man
than lying, vainness, babbling, drunkenness,
or any taint of vice whose strong corruption
inhabits our frail blood".

There are more gifts in who you are than there are in who you think you want to be.

Be yourself. Unapologetically.

So fair and foul a day I have not seen.
