Everyone Should Own an Akubra Hat

Posted on 13th May 2008 by Bushie in Writing

It’s all just words really. You could read the same information in a dozen places, and it would all be of equal value, but that doesn’t mean it’s of equal enjoyment. The same old thing can be re-hashed again and again, and you care less and less. That’s why everyone needs an Akubra hat.

 A hat equates to a personality, a particular voice that comes through when you’re writing to make you more than just another re-hashed pile of information. If you can write with a unique voice, or in other words wearing your, then you suddenly become a real, live, human being and not just text on a screen.

Akubra’s aren’t for everyone. I’ve seen people write with the voice of philosophers, mothers, battlers, game characters and even cats. (If my cat did have a voice, he still wouldn’t say anything.) You  need to have a bit of personality, mate, you really do. Trying to be too informative without being personable is simply dry and boring. Honestly, who surfs the net to be bored?
