@nymphirie Yay! Would love to be moots! 😍

[Caitlyn @wordsasartists]

@rewnditback OMG "ends" *cries*

[Caitlyn @wordsasartists]

@rewnditback Absolutely concur! Especially when one of the love interests unnecessarily end up a villain 😑

[Caitlyn @wordsasartists]

@littleredrosies If you like YA and are all right with non-romcoms, HOW TO BREAK A BOY is definitely popular girl x nerdy guy!

infinite flow 无限流 is its own prominent distinct genre of chinese media that encompasses horror, survival, & game elements. though making comparisons to similar works of other countries isn’t wrong, to imply they’re just “inspired takes” IS when this genre already exists alone.

Rant: OMG. That stupid discourse about "diaspora authors vs Chinese native authors, who writes better cultural stories" is so stupid bcs the ones being like "only Chinese natives can write accurate Chinese stories bcs diaspora have 0 understanding of culture" are highkey-

[Shen Tao @storygoose]

Heard there was discussion about The Poet Empress and its historical accuracy on here so I reactivated my account to clarify a few things. (long thread)

[Girltaku Podcast @Girltaku_AT]

I'm not usually one to opine on discourse but what has happened with The Poet Empress has rubbed me the wrong way at every angle as a Chinese diaspora who never lost her connection to the culture and is published in the west so here’s an unnecessary long thought thread 1/17

Laptop students typed almost word for word, capturing more total content but processing almost none of it as they went, while the handwriting students physically could not write fast enough to transcribe a lecture in real time, forcing them to decide what actually matters…

NEWS: I'M GOING TO BE A PUBLISHED AUTHOR!!!

After 12+ years, I can't believe it's finally happening. My debut novel, THE DARKNESS BENEATH, is an Adult Fantasy Adventure coming Spring 2027 that's heavily inspired as a gender-swapped reimagining of The Mummy (1999)!

[Caitlyn @wordsasartists]

@dramaticath No worries at all! ❤️

[Gwenyth Reitz @GwenythReitz]

[Caitlyn @wordsasartists]

@rachkmc Oh! Would you recommend a few horror romances pretty please? 😅❤️😍 Ty in advance!

[Caitlyn @wordsasartists]

@yifever …you cannot generalize to an entire country’s populace solely based upon a few cruel persons. The Sinophobia of late is disheartening.

[Caitlyn @wordsasartists]

@711ontop @oroosonbeelii @ForCdrama 的確，是我打錯了哈哈😅

[Caitlyn @wordsasartists]
