About halfway through This Safe Darkness by Alexis Maragold and it's soooo good. The dystopian elements being linked to infertility and how society punishes women who can't or choose not to have children is so on point. #dystopia

Restarting a WIP is hard, but it can be necessary. If it's not working and you know yourself well enough to know that you Have to have the front half to effectively write the back half, then do it. Wiping the slate clean and letting the idea twist and turn beyond what was planned can be effective

The same nine images overlayed with text that reads 'a jaded pirate, a killing mist, a runaway princess, ships sail the canopy, monsters stalk below'.

The same nine images overlayed with text saying 'sounds like' and eight songs listed. Moonlight Serenade from Pirates of the Caribbean, I See the Light from Tangled, Test Drive from How to Train your Dragon, Vanilla Twilight by Owl City, The Reason by Hoobastank, Dust to Dust by the Civil Wars, This Love (Taylor's Version) by Taylor Swift, Just Say Yes by Snow Patrol.

My unserious graphics for my very serious novel. SINNERS x IWAV Angeline wakes up with a taste for blood and a two hundred years of missing memories. As visions reveal flashes of her past, she must uncover the truth before danger crosses her doorway. #Cupit #A #RoFa #LGBT #BIR #Q

If you're a fan of food history, I really recommend checking out Wick'd Confections on YouTube. She has a whole series this month on Black American recipes and it's been eye-opening to see the part box mixes played into recipes being lost

I did an interview with the lovely #BrittanyJohnson for her debut YA Sapphic #romantasy. With fun fairy tale vibes, exploration of themes like abuse and the right to be angry, and plenty of flowers, Deadly Ever After delivers two soft and strong female leads serenahaas.substack.com/p/an-intervi...

Super, super cute contemporary middle grade that made me see the color orange in a whole new light. I have never liked orange before reading this, but now I think it's an awesome color. #berryparker #tanitasdavis #middlegrade

I'm a huge fan of Ookami no Kodomo/The Wolf Children and Belle, so I was absolutely going to see #Scarlet, which was sold to me as a genderbent Hamlet with a science fantasy twist. Scarlet is not my favorite of Hosoda Mamoru’s films,

Love, love, LOVED how this book explored the Chinese Queer experience, both past and present, and had really fascinating characters to explore the world outside the romance arc #justinianhuang #theemeperorandtheendlesspalace #speculativefiction

Don't know how many people remember Munto, but as I was listening to the What It Sounds Like demo (again), I had this idea for the #KPDH sequel of #Rujinu reaching across the barrier a la Munto as they sing the lines from the Free verse for a Free Reprise

I don't think anyone in Hollywood loves monsters or gothic more than #DelToro. He genuinely seems to understand why people are attracted to gothic as a genre beyond vibes and why people love monsters and monster romance and he makes films for that audience, films that are deeply human and complex

The callback to Free in the What It Sounds Like demo and the layering to simulate a final Rumi and Jinu duet are making me feral #kpopdemonhunters

So I am going to say something about romance as a genre. A lot of people think that romance is ignorable because <insert thing they think about romance> and romance authors don't count because <insert thing they think about romance>. This thread is not about whether you have to like romance.

Julia Song Is Undateable by Susan Lee is such a fun romcom that really addresses the struggle that so many people who became caretakers of a parent or grandparent at a young age have to go through: letting go of the need to take care of others and live your own life. #romance
