iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

I don’t remember the last time I shared a monthly reading wrap up on here oops. So here’s what I read in September! (Also feel free to send a friend request on StoryGraph)

Graphic with a light background and autumn leaves motif in red and orange. Text at the top is in an outlined script that says “September reads”. There are five book covers: The Butcher’s Masquerade by Matt Dinniman, A Taste of Gold and Iron by Alexandra Rowland , Zodiac Academy: Fated Throne by Susan Valenti and Caroline Peckham, The Knave and the Moon by Rachel Gillig, and A Prince Among Pirates by Katie Abdou. The first three covers have a headphones graphic to show they were audiobooks I listened to.

Screenshot from StoryGraph of theinsanefox’s September reading wrap-up. I read 5 book, 924 pages, listened to 51.12 hours. And an average rating of 4.0 stars. Average book length: 544 pages. Average time to finish: 14 days. All books were fiction. top genres were: romance, fantasy, LGBTQIA+, Historical, and science fiction. There’s a graph of how much I read or listened to each day. Pie chart in the bottom rubber says I read 60% audiobooks, 20% digital and 20% print.

All this to say ffs, fandom ain’t that serious. Some of you all really need to touch some fucking grass. That is all. 💀

Real world: Hell My job: Hell My horse: injured My bank account: suffering between horse being hurt and my car needed new brakes this week Fandom spaces: once again acting like so much dumb drama here is the end of the world. I’m so fucking tired. I just need things to start going right for me.

Forever battled by people complaining about AO3. It has so many great functions and such a robust tagging and filtering system wdym you can never find stuff you like on there 😭😭

Stevie seems to be doing a little better so 🤞🏻🤞🏻 this trend continues. Poor girl is so bored I feel so bad. 😭

Begging people to stop complaining about fic "pet peeves" in public spaces (yes, including large discord servers). It's so discouraging to writers and you never know who you're insulting because they might do the thing you complain about. Forever screaming fic is FREE and A LABOR OF LOVE!!!

I keep seeing videos of younger Gen Z telling millennials to retire so they can get jobs and dude—how old do you think we are? We’re in our 30’s to at OLDEST mid-40’s. If we could retire we fucking would 😭😭😭😭

It’s always so wild to be a fujo at a book event for a hetero romantasy book release. The store I was at is a romance specific bookstore and had a whole section for omegaverse and I felt insane being the only person there that was like “wait where’s the gay omegaverse?” 😂

Wow love going from having a great night gaming with friends to seeing a bunch of judgmental af comments from a different group that make me self conscious and want to just crawl under a blanket and disappear.

My aunt gave me some cowboy bodice ripper romance book as a joke gift and she clearly didn't pay attention when she bought it because the male love interest has the same name as my brother. It is not a common name. I'm putting this book straight in the donations where I volunteer 😂

Pixel art of Pippin Postpaw, a fluffy golden retriever mail carrier happily trotting through a snowy mountain valley. He wears a tiny postal hat and carries a leather mailbag filled with letters, looking far too cheerful for such a long, chilly journey. A clear turquoise stream winds beside him, surrounded by snow-covered rocks, pine trees, and colorful mountains glowing beneath a bright blue sky. His tail is up, his paws are moving, and he looks completely ready for adventure… even if he may not be entirely sure which way he’s going.

Sorry I’ve been MIA. Finally got Stevie looked at then had to go on a business trip and now I’m sick so it’s been a WEEK 💀 Good news! Nothing torn in Stevie’s leg. She just has some inflammation of a ligament so she got a very strong anti inflammatory shot and will go up for a recheck in 6 weeks—

Begging people not to put down other fics when leaving a comment on mine. Saying other writers in the fandom don’t do characterization well but that you think I do is not the compliment you think it is. Fandom is meant to be fun and uplifting others. We’re all making dolls kiss, after all.

Stevie is going up to the vet school tomorrow to finally figure out what she did to herself and I’m so anxious what they’re going to find I’ve been crying and throwing up all night. I need my girl to be okay.

How am I doing? Woke up this morning crying and dry heaving and tried to keep busy all day to distract myself but now I’m home and alone with my thoughts so. Fuck me. Gonna be a long fucking 10 days until I have an answer of what’s wrong with Stevie.

Not the news I was hoping for from the vet today. Stevie’s probably going to be laid up for a while. Fml.

My horse’s leg is better but still not 100% and my fucking anxiety is in overdrive over this UGH. Also the group I volunteer with on the weekends has gotten so fucking annoying. People love to micromanage and nitpick and I’m just forever reminding them I’m a VOLUNTEER I will quit istfg

Survived the week from absolute HELL. Work still sucks and Stevie’s leg is only kinda better. I need to cry and sleep for a week.

Just. Fuck me. Work has seriously fucked me over TWICE this week and it's not something I can get into but I definitely need a new job. Stevie's leg was doing better yesterday...now it's bad again. I'm so worried about her and the possible vet bill incoming. My meds got adjusted and my anxiety --

This new trend of people coming into comments on here trying to get you to pay them to beta your fics really needs to fucking die. No, I will not pay a stranger to beta my <2k words of pwp. And if I do want a beta, I ask a trusted friend to do it, not some internet rando.

Saying this mostly to myself but in case anyone else needs to hear it: you can walk away from a friendship if the person makes you feel like shit every time you talk to them.
