When D. Yaps

I think strange horrible things should stop befalling my friends

I think strange wonderful things should start befalling my friends

bad thoughts at night/poster’s delight… but those posts by the morning/scrollers take warning

If fate were less cruel, I think I‘d have spent every morning for the rest of my life making you breakfast.

the drafts are a terrible place don't go to the drafts

you will die a thousand deaths in the place of half-formed thought

if you must, take your wip by the hand and lead her out with your eyes closed. do not look back. do not look to the side. if you hear a voice calling you, run.

It's always fun when an author claims their work contains no politics, because either they're blatantly lying, or they genuinely think they're telling the truth and you get a lot of insight into what assertions about human nature they regard as so obviously and self-evidently true as to lie outside the political sphere.

Don't write on an empty stomach. I feel like it never ends well. I know you're busy. You've got deadlines. Crazy hours at work. Kids to clean up after. Chores to mostly not ignore. But I promise you if you sneak a bite to eat in before you hammer out those one or two thousand words a day you like to squeeze in, they'll be way better. Better writing now means less editing later. Also drink some dang water.
