Sample excerpt

Cousin's graduation, folding chairs on the lawn, somebody's speaker balanced on a cooler. Auntie called the dance and the whole yard learned it in about four minutes flat.

Snap once if you came to have a good time, snap twice if you never left at all. Don't need a club, don't need a line, we made a party out of nothing but a wall.

Workshop noteSecond person, present, playful. Snap is minimal by design: the space between snaps is the instrument, so write fewer words than feel comfortable. At 104 BPM one instruction per line is the whole craft.
