“I love Tuco.

Tuco has been plucked out of a Beckett play. Tuco is without luxuries. Tuco is neither a god, or a monster. Tuco is painfully human. Tuco is competing against mythological creatures. Tuco is struggling. Tuco cannot go on. Tuco goes on.

I love Tuco”.

Tuco has been plucked out of a Beckett play - you fuckin said it man

Hey, hordes of anonymous dipshits.  You can’t intimidate me.

Yes, I am middle-aged.   You can’t miss it, since I post my age of 51 on my Tumblr home page.

Yes, I did vote Republican at one time, but I haven’t voted for a Republican candidate since 2008. 

Yes, I do work in Indiana.  Here’s a freebie for you:  I work at a university! 

So, some of you claim to have found my Facebook page.  Congratulations!  I barely use it, and someone should get some enjoyment out of it.

You see, you can’t scare me with threats of doxxing.  I have posted virtually nothing  anywhere of which I should be ashamed.  When people I respect have pointed out that I went too far, said something insensitive, or got something wrong, and I agreed with them, I have apologized and taken it down, you know, like normal people do.  Hint: you’re not people I respect.  

I don’t mind my co-workers knowing that I’m in the Teen Wolf fandom. In fact, I wish they cared, because I’d love to talk to them about it.  They’re not interested.

So bear this in mind when you send me asks like this --

That I don’t care.  You can’t intimidate me. You can’t scare me.  

Your poorly sourced diatribes without a single actual receipt -- no links, no gifs, no pictures, just your pathetic anonymous word for it -- don’t have any affect on me.  Though I still want to know my personal tag.  Please, share it!

Over the last month, I wrote 12164 words for three different novels. As I’d anticipated, it wasn’t a good time to try this challenge because I had a lot going on IRL, and while I did write every day for the first week, after that I mostly collapsed on top of the covers the second I came home, bits of sentences poking at me like cake crumbs. But: what’s clear to me now is that I’m one of those people whose stories are created as they write. I’d already sort of noticed it, but this experience taught me that writing is the only way I will ever have something to write about - which means I really need to set some time apart - say, twice a week or so - and just write, because planning stories, for me, only works up to a certain point. So, well - I didn’t hit the wordcount, and I’m still in act one of that third novel, but I have some characters I really like and something that could sort of work - I think I’m going to give it a chance.

(Also, I’m now hoping to have some time to update my Destiel story! It’s been far too long, and I miss those guys.)
