I’d say it’s just a tragedy about how parents failed their children and the cost of adults feuding needlessly for reputation and other made up stuff

Forget tropes. Tell me what your book is REALLY about. The Sound of a Soul is about a musician on his search for true peace, where he must fight in a war he didn’t start to save his underground community before void-like creatures wipe everything out.

I want Sinners to win so bad, but if Hamnet wins that wouldn’t upset me much as I love everything Zhao does. Anything else though would be tremendously upsetting, but not surprising

The internet is not a space inherently crafted for children and teens. Adults have to maintain the infrastructure and pay for the access to it. I'm extremely resentful of all the companies popping up saying that *I'm* the one who needs to prove that I should have access to the space I pay for.

I got an amazing shoutout from my friend in his newsletter and just wanted to share it here. He described my writing style better than I could, honestly #writingcommunity #awesomefriends

An email with the following text:

This creator shoutout goes to an amazing friend I've known for over 20 years.

Jonathan Pierson - Fantasy Writer

Jonathan writes books like Studio Ghibli makes movies. In saying that, I don't just mean the stories he creates are great, but also that his writing style is heavily influenced by Japanese storytelling.
There isn't always a clear cut villain, and there's something that feels different about the progression of the story. In a way, characters are freed from always needing to be the hero and are instead allowed to live and breathe within their world.
Jonathan consistently posts first-draft chapters on his Patreon which you can find by clicking this link, or you can learn more about his books by visiting his website. I'm sure he would be thrilled to have your support!
That's all for this shoutout. Keep your dream life in sight!

Seriously, @people.com has been meeting the moment better than 90% of publications with direct reporting and crystal clear headlines. This is a good way for the low-information voters who are usually detached from the news cycle to get turned around.

I’ve got $70 out of the $300 I need for her vet visit. I’m going to call today to pay for her worm medication so I can pick it up soon. Hopefully today. It would really help if I can get her seen and get the flea meds so the worms don’t happen again. I feel so bad for her.

October Reading Stats The Spear Cuts Through Water is one of the greatest books I’ve ever read. Emma was a fun read like always, the Lathe of Heaven is gorgeous sci-fi, & Never Whistle at Night is perfectly scary. I also read some spooky short stories, & found I really enjoy Edgar Allen Poe

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

Guillermo del Toro quote "...think about wealth for me for example. A wealthy man that has enough..."

"not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite somebody to beer..."

"...you're rich. If you have, whatever-"

Genndy Tartakovsky shared test footage from his film ‘The Black Knight’. It follows a knight who controls a 20ft suit of armor. Sony isn't sure there's an audience for the film and haven’t greenlit it yet. After Kpop demon hunters success I don't understand why Sony are dragging their feet on this!
