NOVEMBER EDITING, DAY 12: Today I discovered a long-lost note to myself that I left a minor character to rot in a cell for the last six months and I laughed and laughed

The Heroine trying to join in like,
An animated gif of a scene from the teen comedy, 'Pitch Perfect 3.' A girl is trying to insult another girl and failing in spite of herself by saying, 'Hah! Your sweat smells like cinnamon! ...Dammit!'

You should all be watching as many Edgar Wallace films as you can get your grimy little paws on, and one of them should definitely be 1962's The Door With Seven Locks (Die Tür mit den 7 Schlössern) because of this chair, specifically
A screenshot from the German mystery film, 'The Door With Seven Locks' (1962). It shows two rich people in their fabulously-appointed music room. To one side is a gorgeously-sculpted Art Deco chair that looks like a seated supermodel, her legs realistically sculpted in varnished black plastic, her face and torso in black studded leather. Certain anatomical parts are lovingly outlined in studs. It's both stunning and suggestive.

OCTOBER DRAFTING, DAY 27: The Male Lead's like, 'I love you, honey, but can you PLEASE not distract me during a climactic battle?!'
An excerpt from a Microsoft Word document. It reads, 'The Heroine was yelling something, because, you know, THAT WAS FUCKING HELPING, but I don't think my opponent was listening to her any more than I was.' An excerpt from a Microsoft Word document. It reads, 'The Heroine said something again, and I thought it might've been my name or his or 'stop' or some combination of all those really fucking useful words.'

OCTOBER DRAFTING, DAY 24: Even in the middle of romancing, the Male Lead spares a moment to be exasperated at the burden of being the smartest guy in the room
A screenshot of a section of a Microsoft Word document. It reads, ''Well, if it isn't the great A,' B said angrily. 'This is a surprise.' I groaned. It's SUPPOSED to be a surprise, you stupid fuck! Act surprised!'

OCTOBER DRAFTING, DAY 22:
A meme template of a young man first looking excited, then upset. Next to the 'excited' reaction are the words, 'Excited to write the romantic climax.' Next to the 'upset' reaction are the words, 'Wrote 1000 words of transition instead.'

Somehow 'white honey, warm musk, and ambrette seed' turned into 'photorealistic cigarette cherry' and I never knew I'd love the smell of my own skin burning so much

If any of you extrapolate this post into my attitude towards non-fictional victims, I will, I don't know, buy a very angry sticker and mail it to you

I don't know, I just think a movie about alien sex vampires should have alien sex vampires who are good at sex

Today's quote is, once again, from my enraged notes on canon
A screenshot of part of a Microsoft Word document. It reads, 'Oh my god his brain really is just swiss cheese with a picture of the Heroine on it made of raisins'

I guess all I can say about today's scene is an amused observation that EVERYONE in canon is TOTALLY BUZZING about the Third Side of the Triangle's love life. Word's out all over town! He's got a GIRL!

High-quality versions of some non-spoilery graphics from the zine:
A mock-up of a VHS cover for a fictional horror movie titled, 'Crab Feed.' It shows a vintage photo of a creepy old crab baseball mascot, flanked by three surly-looking men from tne 1970's. A mock-up of a vintage VHS cover for a fictional film titled, 'Sunflowers for Stefania.' It shows a grainy black-and-white photograph of a beautiful young 1970's woman, naked from the top up in a field full of sunflowers. A mock-up of a vintage local TV station logo. It's a stylised number 9, with the words, 'WWIK-TV, Wuffolk County' below it.

I think the reason I love Twice Told Tales (1963) so much is that its outrageously whole-cloth 'retelling' of House of the Seven Gables gives me just the right savour of righteous anger for all the time I wasted reading the original atrocity

So, Eddie Nelson instead of Mike Nelson
The nasty, brutish, and possibly short 'Eddie Nelson,' the older brother character of MST3k host character Mike Nelson, except clearly played by the same actor with a biker moustache and cigaret. Mike Nelson, the good-natured, slightly hapless host character of the movie-riffing TV show, Mystery Science Theatre 3000.

What if Mary Shelley smelled like a deep-cleaned BDSM club? Black pleather and blackcurrant all the way, baby!

A perfume that says, 'what if we photoshopped all the characters out of Twilight'
A description of Fyrinnae's perfume, 'Convergence Zone.' It says, 'Late summer light rain on a cool day hits thirsty evergreen trees and dusty soil, bringing a comfortable slight dampness back to the northwest air, finally chasing away the haziness. This is our pure Pacific Northwest rain fragrance, primarily petrichor, fir needles, and a touch of damp soil. Our most popular perfume of 2022.'
