Question for authors: if someone thinks their WIP might kill them, to whom should they report these suspicions? #askingforafriend

[The Ripped Bodice @TheRippedBodice]

I get so sad when people come in and say "these are my guilty pleasure books."

I know it's a throwaway phrase that we use a lot, but pause and think. Why do you feel guilty about taking pleasure in literature?

This is such a hard world to live in. Grab joy where you find it.

I’ve never understood the ‘magic penis’ thing being used as a negative for romance novels. Life is way too short to read about a penis that is anything less than magic.

[Emily Foster @theemilyfoster]

Today I learned I will never be a great reader/writer bc I prefer likeable characters and happy endings. V sad my enjoyment of pleasure is a permanent obstacle literary accomplishment.

I'll start off 1800s Week with Ira Aldridge (1807-1967), Shakespearean actor who performed in major cities throughout Europe. Théophile Gautier said in one review, Aldridge was “Othello himself, as Shakespeare has created him…quiet, reserved, classic and majestic.”

Days like today are why I (1) read historical romance, bc fuck reality; and (2) have a photo of Robert Mueller as my phone&s lock screen.

Maybe only women and law enforcement should have guns until we figure out what is going on.
