Jane Austen reaching the last chapter of a book:
and another thing. I am FINISHED writing dialogue. SICK of it. okay some people got married and others didn't. nobody said anything every again, goodbye
some people got that dawg in them (ability to work on their main wip) but I got that parasite in my (wanting to work on a book I’ll never let see the light of day, let alone publish) 🪱
I have said this before, but I’m going to say it again: Writers, get yourself a small circle of writer friends you absolutely adore. Their victories become your victories, and will bring you so much more joy than if you are an island unto yourself.
seeing the challengers hype makes me so happy!!!! not only because I loved it (and tennis) but because I wrote a sapphic, rivals-to-lovers tennis romance 😭😍🎾
@MARechter okay so I mayyyy be besties with one of your authors and we mayyyyy have a pretty active and great writing cult-I mean community 👀
(no seriously, it’s a great discord and we’d love for you to join 😭)
i love purple prose and i love melodrama. do not communicate anything to me too plainly or reasonably. i want madness and rotting things and grief and love that feels like ingesting rat poison
