well ive decided im pursuing fiction mfa programs for right now but rest assured i have not given up on my dream of being a queer + polyam couples therapist one day
mainly i want polls so i can post one that says "should i make a huge pivot in careers and get my masters in couples therapy" and the choices would only be "yes and im giving u $1000000 for tuition + a kiss on the mouth" or "no b/c i hate love and fun"

i keep having to remind myself that writing book3 is so hard (in comparison to my first 2 books) for a million reasons, including that its a totally diff genre than ive ever written (horror+fantasy) and also, like, my mom died less than 3 months ago
November 18, 2024 at 1:56 AM
was supposed to write today. instead i ran 3 miles then applied for part time jobs at 3 different places bc i am desperate and writing does not quite pay the bills (someone pls hire me challengeeee)

A reminder that I made a starter pack for trans & nonbinary authors who write transfeminine characters! 🏳️‍⚧️

Check out the list and let me know if you or anyone else should be added!

And if you haven’t read a book with a transfem main character lately, here’s your chance!

other transmascs authors (especially in YA but im sure this applies in other areas of publishing too) we NEED to speak up when we notice ppl posting “support these trans authors!” and they have a ratio of 1 transfem : every 10 non-transfem author bc this is getting Fucking Ridiculous

(finally) watched american fiction (with my dad, at his request, bc he saw it when it came out and has wanted to get me to watch it for months lol)

This is still my advice: Become a writer anyway. Fuck it, do it, it won't save you, but it's still a beautiful dream to write novels and short stories and poems and mingle with other dreamers and make art and laugh in the face of death. And writing is constant death. Live más.
