Having a "trying to get my brain back into order" day. Done most of my chores and now trying to figure out wtf I have on the fanfic slate for next year...
Look, a year ago I hadn't even started my Veilguard fic, I don't think, and now there are lists 😂

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

Sometimes, you take a shower, and instead of coming up with the thing that gets you unstuck from the plot point you're at, you instead come up with a wild essay about retellings and reboots.
Anyway, hi, I'm Jax. I was an English major, and I'm about to make it everyone else's problem. 🧵

Annette is poly and has two LIs in #ZendariaChronicles:
With her BFF James (established relationship) it was probably the first time she had a chronic illness flare after meeting him and he brought her soup unprompted.
With Asch (new flame), it's when he answers her Important Call.

Your fandom experience will improve when you start treating works like a buffet where many people attend.
You might fucking loathe the stuffed greens but aren't you glad someone else is enjoying it? Otherwise it'd just be going to waste.
And when someone hates what you like? Bro, more for you

One of the cruelest tricks society played on creative people was planting the idea that being proud of your work is somehow unseemly and egotistical.
You made a thing! You like it! You SHOULD be proud of it. Brag all you want!

When you see a post about Frankenstein, but the post's author has spelled it Viktor not Victor, and you get that much #Jayvik stuff in your feed you have to do a double take to get the context 🤣

You like githyanki? Check out Des' work - their stuff with Voss and Orpheus literally rewired my brain a little 💜 (Hope you don't mind the quote repost, but we all need a little boost sometimes)
feeling disconnected from fandom & people rn & it sucks & I'm sad af. I know my MH has been shit lately & that's not helped anything. I know everyone feels like this, but feeling like the uncool kid playing with the things noone likes (Voss & githyanki) still it's not diminishing my drive to create

delighted to announce not one single person, including the copy editor, has flagged the word "yeeted" even though this book takes place in pseudo-1910 fake-fantasy Scotland, so the word "yeeted" will be in the final book
