I just wanna know if people really think they’re gonna bully Lizzo into not making music anymore. Like, let’s be real. What’s the point of lurking in her posts to talk shit about an album you didn’t listen to? Loser behavior.

Just think: if not for reality TV, we wouldn’t have had this president. Trump was a failing business man and a laughing stock in NYC. Then, Mark Burnett polished his image and made him seem successful in The Apprentice, which made him a household name. But Trump has always been a fraud.

Some dude commented, "You know the same argument can be made for the other side, right?" Uh, yeah. I'm aware that's been the white mindset for years. Which is the whole point of the post

Lavon uses magic. He's not good at it, but the spirit is there. When he inevitably fails, he throws his spellbook and runs. Coop also uses magic. He's from a magic military family. He holds his own in battle. He flashes his dimples and makes glib but flirty remarks as he spells circles around you.

The attack on education in the US is not new, but the slow fuse that arguably started with Reagan is now setting off detonations across K-12 and higher education that are going to be incredibly difficult to walk back if we don’t treat this like the urgent crisis it is.

You know that feeling when you walk up to a group having a conversation, and you add what you think is thoughtful commentary, and the whole group goes silent, then someone says, "Anyway," and they continue the conversation without you? Yeah, that's what social media feels like to me 😅

#WIPSnips From LAVON'S COVENANT: Lavon, being the over-achiever he is, is very good at catastrophizing. #writingcommunity #queerwriters #romantasy 💙📚

I follow her with a sigh, dramatic even for me and the Pride Parade-sized pity party I’m throwing. “What happens if I never get this magic thing down? Does the Witch Council wipe our memories, and we all live as mortals? Will the magical bloodline end with me?”

“What’s he being dramatic about now?” Dad calls from the kitchen as we step into the dining room.

“Magic stuff,” Mom replies, her tone so flat it’s practically an eye-roll in itself.

Better late than never, right? From LAVON'S COVENANT: Coop dreams big. Meanwhile, Lavon is in reality... #WIPSnips #WriteSky #WritingCommunity 💙📚 🌈📚

Coop inspects his hands, still stained pink from the lab explosion. With a snap of his fingers, the color vanishes, leaving his skin its usual golden brown. “Think about it,” he continues, completely unbothered. “What if a rogue gnome shows up, wreaks havoc on the mortals, and we need to team up as a magical superhero duo to defeat it?”

“Nothing like that has ever happened,” I remind him. Right now, the only magical beings stirring up trouble around here are the two of us.

So, this goal has changed since I disappeared off the face of the earth. I think the best thing to do now is to split Lavon’s Covenant into two ~50k books? Idk maybe revise to give certain scenes room to breathe
