Fighting the urge to join in on the “Willow Talks Books” TikTok drama because her YouTube channel is even more uninformed and degrading to readers than just that one damn video

Because my thread on Age of Scorpius still regularly gets likes, I’m gonna put a quick note here to add onto my posts —

Milo Winter (he/him) is the author of Age of Scorpius. I’m tired of people deadnaming him because folks want clicks/SEO results instead of wanting to respect a trans person.

Whenever I need to write a character who is able to deliver a SCATHING cunty read with an inescapable burn radius, I watch a few ours of @caelan.bsky.social to educate myself first. Works every single time.

The imposter syndrome has been hitting hard this weekend. But I still sat down and wrote 3k words, because that’s what you have to do.

If I have to choose between walking forward while terrified VS sitting stagnant while terrified, I know what option I’m picking.

🫖 basically only speaks in riddles, rhymes, quotes, and lies. So ☕️ does not like it (he HATES it really) but he would put up with all the lying just to be around 🫖 more.
How do your characters handle being lied to? Are they forgiving? Does it depend on the lie? #WritingPrompt

Tired of trying to stay positive in the face of mean people.

Going to try eating donuts and doing drugs instead.

It’s not a Mourningstar novel unless a character gains weight during the story and their love interest gets soooooooo horny over it

The constant flip-flop between academic writing and fiction writing can be a lot of fun and very educational.

But it can also mean you can accidentally start writing your midterm with purple prose and you have to step back for a minute.

I have two!

One is a dark ancient deity represented through centipedes. As someone who is scared of centipedes, I flinch when I write him 😬

The second is the cutest sweetest stag beetle in the universe (he is a literal beetle) and he is so fun to write but I am ALSO scared of stag beetles 😭 so
