Reading this and
Coming to America - Scott Adams Remix Keni
  gives me a thrill similar to that which came from discovering
MVC
frameworks. I remember feeling for the first time that I could build the things I was using. I no longer was 
qualitatively
different from the professional 
developers
. Quantitatively? Yes, but I could bridge that gap. There was a bridge that I could take finally. And that bridge was the conventions of MVC.

Reading this I'm super impressed. You were able to craft an engaging scene with real feeling characters. I'm not going to hyperbolize and say that these are characters that I'll dream about and think about on my walks, but who can manage something like that in ~500 words?

This accomplishes exactly what 500 words should. Establish a connection between reader and characters, and have the reader asking for more. And you did it without some voodoo magic, artist way but rather just following a 'braindead' process. Just follow the MVC pattern. Don't over complicate things to microservices. Not for now yet.

Anyways I'm super looking forward to how continuing this 'braindead' process or just following conventions can change the way we write. 

Recently I have come to the realization that even the great stories are not these big huge acrobatic feats but rather a composition of simple and reasonable snippets like the ones you and Keni just created via mimicry. I trust that if mimicry tends to consistent input ability then the creative part where we no longer are actively mimicking another writer will arrive naturally. Even before we know it.
