To anyone rewriting the same paragraph for the tenth time today: that's not you failing at the sentence. That's you finally being able to hear what's wrong with it. Keep going. #SFF #WritingCommunity

I need a good solid week to sit down to this but I find I can't play for more than 4 hours before my brain is fried from the strategising Plus some of the battles are woefully OP on the back of relatively easy battles - saved the Druid okay but that drowish witch is hardcore

Not to alarm anyone, but… this book I'm working on is genuinely the most insane thing I've ever written. I didn't know I had this kind of book about rage, codependency, the violence of love, and grief in me set against a blistering cold PNW winter, but here we are. 🧍🏽‍♀️ #writingcommunity

your religion, no matter which one you follow, should never dictate whether or not you support human rights for gay couples and trans people human rights are non-negotiable "oh yeah I respect that you have blue eyes but I don't support it" that's literally what you sound like

The thing about bisexual men is you get Shakespeare & George Gershwin & Jeremy Brett & both Spooky Prices (Vincent & Dennis) & why would you cut yourself off from that, dating-wise? (We are watchin' some Holmes. Faking your death & surprising Watson in disguise was a dick move, Sherlock.)

People who don’t want musicians speaking out on anything “political” inherently know they’re in the wrong. What Sturgill just said in defense of trans people and drag queens was incredible. Giving a voice to the voiceless.

sister of the year tells you she regrets helping you come out as trans because you asked her to give you permission to transfer out your phone number. after she's said she's going to delete your phone line in 3 days for having dared to disagree with her after letting her vent for 3 weeks

My take on trans rights: you don't need to understand the nuances of the trans experience to have a baseline belief that we all deserve to exist.
