The most annoying thing about writing Greek myth retellings is the WELL, ACTUALLY crowd.
I recognize I write fan-fic-y versions of these myths, but SHOCKINGLY, that requires research?
And any choices I make to divert from the most commonly held myths are intentional choices?????????

Parlor Room on Dropout is such a delight of a show. A bunch of friends/comedians/actors playing goofy ass games and eating snacks in the middle? Perfection. Exactly what I want from my media.

So I'm trying to hijack my brain by reminding myself that if I don't stick with a mostly regular regime, I'll be in a REAL bad way in 5 or 10 years. So the little pain now is better than bigger pain later. But I have a check-in with my strengths coach in a month or so, and that external stuff helps.

There was absolutely a time I would have tried to push through, but I've been bitten in the ass by that behavior enough to know better (in theory). I can be taught! LOL.

I'm not even like OMG DEATH sick. Just uncomfy and woozy sick, so my goofy ass brain is like "Just push through" but that is NOT the answer, brain!

Tapping out at 1k words. There's no way I can run today, which means there's a solid chance I'm going to fuck up my program schedule. I'm just trying to prep my ADHD like "No, we didn't fail, we don't have to quit working out for 6 months, we can just keep going when we feel better, I promise..."

Been divorced like 15 years and counting and I still have my ex's ssn memorized because he was military and they use that shit for everything (and the kids continue to because of insurance).

I will work for 30 min and if I'm still dying at the end of that 30 min, I will just call it a day, do some admin, and watch Murderbot or something.

I made the mistake of starting to listen to some of the transcripts of the Supreme Court over birthright citizenship* and, damn, it's really hard to focus on writing this messy mob book now.

I swear it's almost compulsion for some people.
BUT I DO NOT LIKE THAT THING WITH GROSS EMOTIONS AND SEX?
Um? Good for you? There are dozens of genres you can read instead???

Please tell me they're not serious about considering a reality show to fast-track immigration status.

Anywho, if you've tried and failed to read The Huntsman on Netgalley because of the formatting, they're feeding a new version through, so it should be updated and easier to read soon! I am VERY excited for this one!

Apparently it's a lot more common than I realized, and oftentimes publishers will tell the author that's just how things are. It's odd, because I very rarely come across it in my ARC reading, so there is clearly SOMETHING that can be done.

Oh yeah, I don't accept PDFs anymore because the watermark always eats huge amounts of the text when I convert the file. I need to be able to change the font size. I have old eyes!

I don't want to stress the author out, so I'm on the hunt for the PM deal announcement LOL.

For reference, I got my ARC on Netgalley, so this is the epub EVERYONE got. Just... Come on, y'all. I'm seriously considering reaching out to the publicist/editor, because this is ridiculous. I don't know if that's overstepping, but they need to do better.

I can't tell if pubs do this to discourage pirating (LOL) or because they're uploading a PDF to an epub (???), but it's seriously fucked. It's ESPECIALLY fucked that this is a Black author and the pub is potentially shooting early buzz in the foot with this fucked formatting.

I'm still mad about the ARC I got for a HIGHLY anticipated read for me--like literally one of my most anticipated reads of the year--and the formatting was so fucked up, it was unreadable. Lines broken weirdly. Words cut in half. Completely shoves you out of the story.

Genuinely would be cool if 90% of major press outlets weren’t owned by actual shitbag billionaires dead set on yanking society backwards so they can hold onto the obscene wealth they literally can’t live long enough to spend
this is not an exaggeration

I don't always send a blurb for a book that I really, REALLY loved to the editor, but when I do, I sure as shit wrote the wrong title. If you need me, I'll be in my corner of shame.

I'm in the weird place where nothing is on fire professionally with deadlines, so doing a lot of dreaming about Bonkers s5 and what we want to do there. We've been iterating since s1, and I think s4 will be closest to where we're headed in the future, but that means we have to pick a theme/etc...

If we could not bring the "hey, author, I'm in your mentions, saying how I don't like your book" to Bluesky, that would be super great.
