Me too.

The Hunter episode, the subplots and small details are great.

The main story is cliche and terrible (it is based on a Harlequin novel after all).

Here’s a novel idea: instead of a heteronormative, woman’s porn inspired romantasy, how about we let gay men speak for themselves?

HEATED RIVALRY:
Heterosexuals earning all of the praise and profit by telling their version of our stories

I dunno

Why write another novel (my third) that won’t be published?

I might finish it (I’m 130 pages in)

I might not

This might be it

I’m trying to finish this novel (I’m 120 ages on why not).

It’s been a year

Why bother

No one would dare publish it even if I finished it

Vocation

.. I was saying I am terrified of swallowing
an avocado pit, of having this big world growing
inside me, of giving birth to a vocalization that
would eat me, of choking on my own words that, 
once uttered, would commend me to the compost,
hence my silence, even as I speak, so nothing grows.

Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun;
Conspiring with him how to load and bless
With fruit the vines that round the thatch-eves run;"
