🕰️ a MAGIC INFUSED, dreamy coming-of-age
🍂BLACK LESBIANS falling in love
& THINGS FALLING APART

Fern and Addie, both lonely and wading through life, find themselves stuck in a time stopped, eternal summer. Now, all they have is an excess of time, and each other.

I wish there wasn’t such an inordinate pressure to write a whole book within the year. Sometimes it’s okay to take years to write your story. Some stories need years to develop to build a rich world and develop brilliant characters.

the internet’s obsession with success at a young age creates unhealthy complexes for a lot of people (myself included) when we’re meant to actually be experiencing our youth—instead of spending it mired in self-loathing—and reaping the rewards of those experiences later

Doing Camp NaNo? Friendly reminder the NaNo management actively protected a predator that preyed on children. Then after it got public, they created an agreement that tried to force internal staff and volunteers into not reporting "internal incidents" to the public & authorities.
