Rakos never held a grudge, until he realized no one was going to hold it for him.

Amethyst is too busy holding it together to hold a grudge.

Charra gets even quick or lets it go.

Ruby doesn't waste her time on the past, right or wrong.

Emera holds a grudge like the ocean holds water.

Inspirational! But not aspirational, that was all kinds of fucked.

Is taboo, friend. Just not on Reddit or Tumblr.

Thanks! It's a trauma response, like most things, lol.

Putting something rad in my story, then coming up with an even cooler historical justification for it being there. Then kind of being sad my story isn't actually about the historical event/or period.

Rakos has learned patience, from hard experience.

Amy has both the wary patience of a prey animal and the long-suffering patience of a mother.

Charra is as patient as she has to be.

Ruby is way more patient and calculating than anyone expects.

Emera is meticulous, yet the least patient of all.

Probably smut, or one of those actual plays. Or Gods help me, both.

Is that a lady with two heads?

Did someone reeeaally enjoy the Stranger from Slay the Princess?

I choose to believe there's a market for stories with well-written characters and deep world building, that also deal in transgressive hentai-style smut.

Some people need a convoluted narrative to get off.

Those people are my people.

RIP to a man who knew no shame in love for scantily clad, busty women. A man who saw breasts bouncing boobily said: "Now make them jiggle."

You will be missed.

Skrelax sounds like something you'd take for constipation.

Does my anime-inspired erotic novel feature kinks that are flat-out banned on Amazon?

Yes.

Does it feature a play-within-a-play where the main characters watch an in-world anime with strong thematic parallels to the main story and a bitchin’ opening credits sequence?

Also yes.

Other dystopias at least got flying cars or cool names for their repressive regimes and engines of control.

So, basically billionaires once they crack immortality - they only see eachother as people; everyone else is disposable for so much as a momentary distraction. But they’re too powerful to guillotine.

Well, they're gonna be banning that one, aren't they?

They were probably going to be lousy years anyway.

A healthy To Be Read pile is a sign of an open, active mind and a full, textured life.

That's what I tell myself every time I look at my Shame Stack, anyway.

Mary Roach could write about the history of cutting grass and it would somehow be a breezy read with a killer laugh line every three pages.

After awakening to yet another shower of near-intrusive thoughts (a back-of-the-book blurb among them) I have come to the horrible realization that my muse is a morning person.
