Your worth is more than what you give to the people around you. You, yourself, hold intrinsic value. https://t.co/AOwCMvvHkH

On a single flight I watched Love, Simon and read NOW I RISE. Sometimes travel is nice.

@BriannaShrum THIS. A WIP of mine is supposed to be poly but the two female characters are so good together that it may end up being f/f.

The "I have to get tenure" weight on my back has grown heavier. I'm not sure who I am as a writer anymore. The world is an exhausting garbage fire. But I'm still reading. Reading keeps me going. I'm so grateful for the authors who pushed long enough to get their books out there.

"We all have the same 24 hours."

Use public transport? Your 24 hours are not the same as those of private jet owners.
Do your own cooking, cleaning, child~raising? Your 24 hours are not the same as those of someone with a full~time domestic staff.
Stop this nonsense.

It's so much easier to consume others' creative output than to generate my own

Me: *doing homework*

Brain: WE REALLY SHOULD BE WRITING

Me: *exercising*

Brain: YOUR STORY NEEDS YOU

Me: *watching a movie*

Brain: I could write NINE chapters RIGHT NOW

Me: *sits down to write*

Brain: *napping*

@BriannaShrum This reminded me of a good thread breaking down the Luke hate https://t.co/RYhO8gN9ys

[Jonathan McIntosh @radicalbytes]

A handful of The Last Jedi haters in my mentions are offering up a fascinating misreading of the final showdown between Luke and Vader in RotJ. I think it's worth taking a moment to discuss because it may help explain why these guys hate Luke’s character so much in Episode VIII.
