It’s me. Hi. I’m the problem.

Being a writer means having a story you want the whole world to read, except everyone who knows you.

@ellesnotreading This thread just confirms that I do not want to read Colleen Hoover.

[Peyton Reads is WRITING A BOOK❤️‍🔥 @peyton_reads]

You don’t have to read purely non-fiction to learn about the world and expand your mind with knowledge with every book you read. I’ve read over 400 fictional books in my life and I firmly believe it has made me a more intelligent, emphatic, and overall better person.

PLEASE someone invite me on a writing retreat

[Gina Ippolito @GinaIppy]

Bring back Mary Shelley-esque writers retreats where a group of weirdo writers spend a weekend together getting drunk and eating snacks and end up writing the most famous horror stories of all time.

Being an adult really just means you have an upstairs bottle of ibuprofen and a downstairs bottle of ibuprofen

Why you should study English lit.

I’ve been trying to pinpoint why i love this show so much & this is part of it. They’re not shitty people just for the sake of comedy. They’re individuals who love deeply but still make honest, hilarious mistakes.

[Glen Weldon @ghweldon]

When we did THE BOB’S BURGERS MOVIE on PCHH, i realized that Linda LOVES her kids with an effusive, unconditional passion, while Bob SEES his kids as individuals. And that both kinds of support make for a healthy family.

I’ve since done a series re-watch. And hooboy, I’m right.

[lauren wester @wester_lauren]

I can’t even begin to explain how angry this makes me.

[John O'Farrell @mrjohnofarrell]

Apologies for this rant on universities cancelling English Lit courses in response to government demands that a % of graduates find professional level work within months.
Firstly, you absolutely cannot measure the value of an education by the job anyone takes right afterwards. 🧵
