My LGBTQ+ family, I need you. I’m Nour, surviving the trauma of war in a tent with almost nothing. My community rejects me for being queer, leaving me alone, unsafe, and terrified. Your support—whether a donation or a share—could help me escape danger and rebuild my life with dignity.🙏
To my LGBTQ family I’m Nour, a queer woman from Gaza
I lost my home in the war and now live in a tent with almost no food or clean water
I’m carrying deep trauma, and my own community rejects me for who I am
I’m fighting to survive. If you can donate or share, you’ll help me reach safety and dignity

oh for sure i think it’s wild to go about this in person.
I wouldn't tell someone in person I didn't like their book (unless they asked repeatedly), but I do love this"That's your privilege" response because it indeed validates an individual experience without making it a personal confrontation. We've really gotten bad at de-escalating conflict graciously
i think this is a great response. disliking a book has become almost looked down upon when it isn’t also connected to some kind of author-related discourse. we really need to bring back the concept of not all books being to everyone’s liking and authors embracing this even when it stings to hear it

"I read your last book, and I was bored out of my mind."
"Well, that's your privilege."
100% using this Jessica Fletcher line from Murder, She Wrote when someone tells me at a con they didn't like a book 😆. Love this so much.

i like how you can immediately tell when a writer trying to write wlw doesn't think intimacy between women is a particularly interesting topic. i think that's why you shouldn't just ask people to write more GL out of some sense of obligation but only people who are kind of obsessed with it should

No, I 100% agree that computer RPGs these days have too much handholding. I, too, yearn for the days of being able to spend hours crafting my perfect build from hundreds of available options, only to discover that it mathematically cannot survive the mandatory rat fight portion of the first dungeon.

One of the simplest ways to see that creators aren’t bourgeois is that we don’t, as creators, appropriate other peoples’ labor.
We do labor that we can eventually make money from, we don’t make money from exploiting others. It’s the exploitative relation that characterizes the bourgeoisie.

Honestly, people calling creators the "petite bourgeoisie" makes me want to snap.
We're working folk. And we work really hard. For next to nothing.
We're not lounging around eating bonbons. We're trying to figure out how we're going to be able to pay rent next month.

If writing is so easy why do people argue that they can’t do it without the pablumatic verbiage extruder
And if it’s so difficult then why do people think it’s not labour and writers are not workers

Aiglamenae should have been like this in chapter one. why did we have to wait till chapter four to engage with someone who can actually deal with the world around the characters in ways that dont read like the journal of a middle schooler who just learned how to curse

if the characters dont care what is happening around them and approach everything with tongue-in-cheek disaffected irony, why should readers give a shit?

“her shoulders shook with very real fear and grief” oh jesus christ i could not give less of a fuck. if you feel it necessary to tell your reader the grief is “very real” you have failed as a writer. this feels all flashy baubles and zero substance.

Vaccines DO NOT cause autism - there is extensive research showing this. Resurrecting old, discredited, fraudulent work is shameful.
Vaccine-preventable illnesses are serious - this is going to cause real harms.
This is dangerous & disappointing.

trying to listen to the audiobook of gideon the ninth while editing my book. hearing it out loud isn't any better, unfortunately; the second-hand embarrassment i feel at the deadpool-esque self-aware sense of humor is...palpable. currently it's helping lessen my anxiety about my own book, tho.
