/lit/ - Literature

Not sure how well this will do here but I have synesthesia (ordinal linguistic personification form + some gustatory/spatial/colour variations), so I thought I’d try an AMA.

And before you think this might not be board-relevant, the form I have gives me a few /lit/ advantages, like:

> I read very fast
> Reading plays out like a ‘film’ for me where some words take centre stage
> I have an irresistible urge to ‘chew’ some words which is kind of fun and pretty random when they turn up
> I can recall conversations word for word because of the way words overlay my memory of the event
> I don’t do creative writing but I love words and ‘playing’ with them in my mind

Anyway, let’s see how this goes. Statistically, there should be other synesthesists on here so might be interesting. Anyway, related is Kandinsky who, I think, had the form where he can ‘hear’ colours (I also have this).
