Cactus, he/they, adult.I post stuff about disability, Shakespeare, plants, science (sometimes), the Silmarillion and the Lord of the Rings, ATLA, and being queer!
In honor of our very first sneak peek of the movie Wicked, my nostalgia kicked into high gear and I'm honoring one of my earliest fandom crazes with a silly little comic I'm calling "Fiyero Doesn't Get Enough Recognition For All The Shit He's Been Through."
Enjoy Fiyero having the weirdest 72 hours of his life.
My mom talked to one of my old college professors that does a bunch of amphibian surveys and apparently he said “if we had the funding I would hire Alex to roam around the forest and do all our field work”
derin, i have to assume that it was on purpose, but just in case... did you name your point-of-view character, suffering from the first great of their best friend and sibling, and then their entire family and in fact way of life an alternate spelling of "grieves" intentionally, or does your brain just do that shit you sometimes?
If you see any cool little allusions or naming themes or anything in TTOU, the truth is, that anything stupid or tacky is an accident and you're seeing things, and anything clever that makes me look really smart is something I put in on purpose.
ive seen a bit of talk about a physical ttou on the feed today, and was just wondering if you plan to take the thing through revisions or some such for that sorta shift in medium
no real reason just wondering! :D
The web serial version is essentially a first draft. The story will indergo editing before being released as an ebook, and further final editing before going to paperback and a polished ebook release (which is why the Curse Words paperback is taking so long, I keep putting off the final edit).
I don’t know how to say this in a way that doesn’t sound like I’m advocating for casual cruelty or whatever but something that grates so much about this current social moment is how many people are incapable of saying they dislike something or someone without cooking up some higher morally correct reason for their dislike. Sometimes you just disliked a book. Sometimes you don’t “get” an actor or a musician. There’s nothing morally wrong with your girl’s fuckass boyfriend he’s literally just annoying and you’re annoyed that you have to pretend you like him when you know he’ll be history in six months. It’s fine. You don’t need to justify your dislike.
