Write that thing. Pluck it outta your soul with rusty pliers. Hit the keyboard like it owes you money. Write whenever, wherever you can. Tell your story. Make the words dance. Whatever you want—a novel, a short story, an agent, a movie—it all starts with the writing.

Gett an lode of theez badboyz

In 1984, "party like it's 1999" was an double edged call to seek joy in the face of looming argmageddon

in 2024, "party like it's 1999" is an escapist dream of slipping the JNCOs back on and staying up all night playing Goldeneye while drinking hard ice tea and smoking a pack of Marlboro Lights

a list of nice things:

• window panes rimed with frost
• reading a long book in bed on a cold night
• chocolate-covered marzipan
• the soundtrack to Valerie and Her Week of Wonders
• children reading or being read to in airports
• illustrations in century-old fairy-tale anthologies

chapter four of my novel is coming along nicely! instead of letting my stress with finals consume me, i’ve been channeling that stress into writing.

i’m really excited - almost finished with my 3rd chapter of the horror(?) novel i’m writing. ahhh!!!! i’m so excited

finally watching criminal minds: evolution. for years, i have been annoyed by the lack of queer representation in the main cast. SO glad that the reboot has that!!

also, i’m glad that we’re getting more of their personal lives and a more work/life balance. and more politics!!

PLAY NICE

My friend attends a silent book club where everyone gathers and reads quietly to themselves. They serve drinks and little snacks. I need this in my life.
