Every piece of literature has one law: you have to get passionate yourself, and then you’ll get others passionate too. If something really wants to be written, you just have to write it—and then you’ll calm down too, and the material will be good. I still don’t fully understand where “University Days” came from.
At one time I worked at a university on the department of Russian literature history as a lab assistant, and I wrote short stories—partly nasty, partly crazy, partly absurd, in the spirit of Kharms. Over time I rewrote them, and “University Stories” appeared—the first part of “University Days.” Then “University Stories” came out on LitRes and I should have stopped, but the material was hot, interesting, and the stories kept getting written and written.
And I also noticed that nowadays in literature the most important thing is rhythm. People read forever on the run and think on the run. That’s why it’s great that stories are also written on the run, and they burst into life like bright flashes.
