Can't believe some people don't have a project™

writing after a long break is so affirming like wow. i can actually do this thing. i rock

I always get this existential crisis before getting back into my writing like: Do I even remember how to do this thing? What if ai dreamed it all? What if I got into this wormhole and it was another version of myself who actually did this writing and the current version of myself has no clue?

Well my word count has been making the last 4 years of my life miserable because I just can’t seem to Finish Editing!

I enjoyed the movie a lot, I mean Ryan Gosling!!, but the audiobook was even more intense. Highly recommended!

If you feel like the emotional moments you've written aren't hitting hard enough, that they aren't making you want to cry, that they aren't making you want to grab a character by the shoulder and shake them, that they aren't making you want to run out your room and scream to the heavens... it's because you've read those moments a hundred times before. You know what's going to happen. You know how it ends. It doesn't surprise you. It probably doesn't faze you. The scene isn't bad at all. You've just grown immune to it. But, your readers will feel like you stabbed them with a knife and twisted the blade. That's what matters.

What if I still get all the feels every time I read it? Does this make me a legit writer or am I being an emotional wreck?

A crucial part of the bookstore experience is saying hi to all the books you’ve already read

I thought I was weird for doing this 😂

Just finished watching The Handmaid’s Tales tv series and it’s one of the most relevant show out there. Leaves you wondering if the characters will ever find resolution. And honestly with the current political climate in the world (and closer to home), it feels about right. We can only hope for better days.

I always have a hard time using that word when teaching middle school. Like how the hell am I supposed to make it sound school appropriate? 🤣

sci fi is all about getting so scared and ripping tubes out of yourself. people miss this

sci fi is all about desperately trying to reclaim your violated bodily autonomy. it’s all about asserting that you are a being with agency, and you can choose what happens to your own person, even if that’s ripping tubes out of yourself. and also sometimes an alien is there
