(friendly reminder before i get into The Meat: all normal DNI criteria applies. don’t follow if you’re a terf/radfem, conservative, racist, transphobe/homophobe/aphobe/etc, truscum/transmed, whatever. i will check and i will block you.)

the blog:

this is a Loving The General Damar Universe blog! it was created because i reblogged a post about jessie graff doing pull-ups with a child on her lap and thought “hey, harry would do that!” and also because i was crying for a week straight about damar. (i’m always crying about damar.)

i reblog posts that remind me of mckinley-related stories and create very very silly headcanons and memes. sometimes i write or draw, and i’m always accepting all kinds of prompts! (note: timeliness with art or Serious Writing is not guaranteed. i’m always down to yell about headcanons, though!)

this probably won’t only be damar series posts - i’ve read most of robin mckinley’s books and loved them. (talk to me about maggie and jill.)

if you see something that reminds you of damar (or another mckinley story), feel free to send it to me! i love talking about mckinley (i also made a discord server!) if you make something, i’d love to see it!

the binch:

call me dot! i use she/her or they/them pronouns. i’m 18. this blog may have been a mistake because i got many more followers than i thought i would (read: any) and i constantly feel like i’m handing out shitposts to Real Life Adults about their beloved book. it’s very nerve-wracking.

i’d prefer it if we didn’t have Hardcore NSFW Talks™ in my inbox or on my posts. it’s a little squicky for me, sorry!

So you found yourself on another bookish blog. What makes this book blog different than any others? Well, I guess that’s for you to decide. Here’s just a bit of a rundown about me and about what I want to do with this space.

I’m Meg. I am a twenty-something female running around a lovely (although often cold) state in the US called Minnesota. Yeah, I went to college, graduated awhile ago but I haven’t really figured out this whole adult thing yet. I have a job working with dogs, but in my spare time I like to read a lot of books. Hence, the blog. But I also like to write and have been trying my hand at cooking recently as well. I’m actually not a bad cook, so at least I have that going for me if nothing else works out. People gotta eat, right?

Like I said, I love to read. And I like to share my love for reading and stories with the people that I care about. I want them to have a great experience reading as well. So I thought that I would just start a place where I could be honest and open about what I read and maybe help some people find some things to read as well. I’ll tell you the good, the not so good, and everything in between. If I read it, I’ll tell you about it.

What do I read?

YA. Yeah, I still read YA and I don’t plan on changing that anytime soon. There is some really amazing stuff being published in that genre and I’m not going to pass it up because I’m no longer in the character’s age bracket (13-19).

New Adult. This is what I am now, but it’s still a new genre in fiction. Main characters are between the ages of 18-30.

Dystopia. I just like seeing the world in pieces. Shoot me. (With an arrow like Katniss Everdeen, please)

Chick-Lit. The warm and fuzzies are good for the soul.

Contemporary Fiction. The books people are talking about, writing about, will become a movie in two years. I like to get ahead of the curve and read the book BEFORE it rights are sold and Emma Stone is cast as the main character.

What's up, I'm Inspiral. I cosplay and I like to rp so this blog may possibly host to some in character cosplay asks.

Real name is Michelle and I live in Los Angeles, CA. I work in the film & television industry in camera and tech. Cosplay has been a difficult hobby to keep up after the move out here and the craziness of work, but my goal  is to get back in the saddle. I’ve really missed it.

Possible Questions You May Have...

How do you say your name? The name comes from the words inspire and spiral, shove them together. [inspire-al]

Where do you get [insert various cosplay items here]...? My binders are from Underworks, contacts from either PinkyParadise or HoneyColor. Most of my wigs come from Arda. Normal clothes are purchased from various stores such as Target, H&M, Goodwill, etc. Anything else I sew myself.

Fandoms? So many right now... Star Wars, Marvel, DC, Steven Universe, Star vs the Forces of Evil, Gravity Falls, Voltron, Overwatch, The Mortal Instruments/Shadowhunters, and I guess I’ll always have somewhat of a soft spot for Sherlock, Supernatural & Doctor Who
