will I finish this draft or will the draft grab my hair call me baby and toss me off the side of the bridge? jury is out

Too many changes had taken place in the past week. It was setting my world off-axis. 'What's going on?'

Jessica Knoll on ‘Bright Young Women,’ the Lie of Ted Bundy, and Her Favorite Corner of TikTok The best-selling author unpacks her latest thriller with VF.

the author interview that the Pamela quote is from:

Cover of Bright Young Women by Jessica Knoll. Very bright yellow and pink.

Quote from Bright Young Women: "There were men who cracked their knuckles while divulging to me what they would do to the defendant if they got the chance, thinking this was somehow reassuring for me to hear. But all it did was make me realize that there wasn't so big a difference between the man who brutalized Denise and half the men I passed every day on the street."

Interviewer: "And is she your Pamela?" Author Jessica Knoll: "No, no, no. Everyone is."

Reaction image. Cartoonish Baby Snoopy lying on the floor staring at the ceiling tucked under a giant rug, ears flung out to the sides, whimsical bendy-straw beverage off to the side, forgotten.

bright young women. I'm full of rage. 5 stars.

Happy writing!!!

the phrase "narrows [their] eyes" had totally escaped me while writing for the past month, but the action hadn't. my characters have been doing a lot of squinting. they should get their eyes checked.

considering changing from third person limited to third person omniscient 17k in. someone take me out now.

Tumblr post from user rederiswrites: "It is a painful truth that actually none of my fics are abandoned, no, not even the ones that haven't updated in five years. I still know exactly what happens next, and after that, and so on. They're not abandoned; they're right here, haunting me, characters climbing up my pants like kittens nagging for dinner."

pov you've written 12k this month on a decade-old fic

I’m consciously uncoupling from my Duolingo streak… I WILL BE A SLAVE TO IT NO LONGER.

modern tragedy: an author wrote one series consisting of four of the best fics you've ever read, then stopped writing for the fandom

INCREDIBLE

Happy WIP wednesday from these two seeing eachother for the first time in 30 years!

people say “you need to start living in the real world” but they forget that the real world includes lupines and lightning bugs and ginger beer and starlight and sea coasts and Renoir paintings and Rachmaninoff’s piano concertos and fog banks and foxes playing in snow.

(pretends to be shocked)

no <3

I have consumed over 120k of hp fanfic in the last 16 hours

AND if I happen to start seeing the drarry vision in the process

... look away

if I start reading wolfstar fic in these trying times, everyone needs to look away

thirteen year old me had serious balls for writing hp fic in first person

Character death but he gets better

Black ink print on off-white paper. A woman in simple Edwardian dress is walking six snooty-looking shorthaired tuxedo cats on long ribbon harnesses that tie with bows on their back. The woman and cat are all facing forward, coming toward the viewer in almost perfectly symmetrical formation.

entering what I believe to be good-faith conversations with the big yellow eyes leering hungrily at me in the deep dark woods

this is about putting a man in a situation
