Fair warning: It may be cute to have a cat that curls up in your arms like a teddy bear to sleep at night, but if they suddenly wake up and get the zoomies… well, there’s a reason that I’m bandaging my arm at 5am

Work days: Writing at 5am as though I don’t need to be at work soon, writing during 15-minute breaks, sneaking down to the basement to write during lunch
Days off: Write one sentence. Despair.

If the Starian Cycle crew had a Halloween costume party:
Laurent shows up in an elaborate costume based on a random fictional character from a niche historical book no one knows about. It’s a blatant excuse for him to wear something expensive and slutty.
Sabre: White shirt, tight pants, collar

Boycott anything Harry Potter. It's incredibly easy to do
A portion of every dollar spent on Harry Potter merchandise goes to anti-transgender campaigns.

The problem with researching things for your fantasy book is you start out searching for old wigmaking techniques, and three days later you’re reading about the destruction of ancient archives and the discovery of sixteen charred pages of “translated accounts” by a guy who didn’t know the language.

Every time something is described as “ghibli-esque” I have to ask whether that means it’s anti-war/industrial greed or if it just evokes the feeling you get when you see a gif of animated flowers

Yes, pirating is upsetting. We try not to think about how often our books have been pirated. But an AI company stealing our books to train its program is foul. Rancid. It’s the kind of relentless, soulless greed that a character like Sam Vimes would make grim comments about before dismantling it.
