#LateNightWrite Earliest was creating my own picture books when I was in early elementary school. I used to write and draw stories about my pets on printer paper, then 3-hole punch them and tie them together with yarn! 🧶

#LateNightWrite What was your earliest venture into storytelling? Was it fan fiction? RP? Journaling? A first WIP? What became of those early endeavors and do you think on them fondly?

AITA for ditching my almost girlfriend to hang out with a bloodthirsty death witch who’s maybe not even real bc she’s a character in a book?

Or is she TA for kidnapping me and my mom and selling us to the Queen who wants to murder us? 🤷🏽‍♂️

Moodboard: olive green, blood red, yellow gold, and brown tones. Blood floating in water, a desert sunset, sword sitting atop an old book, redheaded girl leaning against an ivy-covered wall, bush with ripe lemons, long arched hallway, crown on a table in a ray of sunlight.

One Tamora Pierce quartet ought to sort you right out ✨

I wish we could prescribe books to each other.

Sounds like you need two Flannery O’Connors!

A little Octavia Butler ought to clear that up.

Read sixteen Mary Oliver poems and call me in the morning.
