Well damn, Silksong, I know I’ve been in a shit place as of late, but you didn’t have to call it out like that.

Related: was not expecting Grand Mother Silk to be one of the biggest pushovers in the game. Couldn’t hold a candle to that second Savage Beastfly battle. (First Sinner remains the best.)

My best year ever as a writer has still amounted to under 10k. My income comes 99% from editing (novels, dissertations, mags occasionally, and marketing material), copywriting, and teaching college part-time.
I know we know this, but authors need to get better at talking about how they actually make their money. Stop pretending it's from the books.

Torn between wanting to post more about writing—and maybe actually doing some—or devolving into a puddle of depression. Turns out starting a new medication with that as a side effect ain't great when already suffering from chronic depression and watching a family member slowly die from dementia.

People always ask me, “how do I know my manuscript is done?”

There’s only one way, my friends.

If your file name looks something like this:

Manuscript - Final Draft 3.7 FINAL FINAL - FINAL (5).docx

Then, and only then, is it time.

Had a lot of downtime at the day job recently, so I did the Letterboxd things, only for video games. Because I can never turn down the slightly obsessive urge to document things in list form. backloggd.com/u/AGAWilmot/

Nearly a week on progesterone (after 4 years on just estrogen) and the biggest surprise is that it has given my brain a lot of calm and quiet in a way that even escitalopram has not.

Could do without the extreme fatigue and cramping, however.

Genuinely had no awareness that the Giller was being handed out last night. Went from being an annual must-attend, must-post-about industry event to an almost-nothing burger almost overnight.

-That thing that's haunting you is your parents

Four and a half years in, it's time to try something new.

Estradiol, meet progesterone.

I hope you two get along. 🏳️‍⚧️

I hate his mistrustful ive become of pretty much all media, but this—a thousand times this.

The establishment needs to die. It -deserves- to die.
As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

I don't know what trigger I hit or where, but it seems like over the past week I have managed to catch the attention of every phony book and art marketer in existence, because they have hunted me down at every email address I have—including one that's unlisted—and sent me the same AI-written post.

I’m sorry but the Telegraph saying “we should all celebrate the worlds first trillionaire” is an instant block from me. Fuck off with that shit unless the subhead is “and now we can sacrifice him and spread his wealth to fix the world he helped break while the rest of us dance the dance of joy.”

Idk who needs to hear this, but the less Islamophobic cops in NY, the better.

It's so telling where they want to transfer to.

Good riddance to xenophobic rubbish. 👋

How do you explain what happened to your past self once you transitioned?

Are they dead? Alive within you? Never alive in the first place? Or something else entirely?

Yes, by all means, secure an astronomically absurd pay package for a petulant, greedy, fascist manchild whose presence has sullied your brand beyond repair for untold numbers of people. 🫠
