i'm wrestling with a short story i haven't even begun to write yet. it's horrific and hilarious at the same time. sometimes, during this stage of writing, i just give up for several months or even years, because i'm not ready to say what i have to say. it's too uncomfortable. i have to sit with it.

i like my men afraid and aroused.
same as my readers. who are women.
maleš, bez naslova, 1986: počeo sam kuhati juhu u dotad neviđenim količinama u jugoslaviji.
branko maleš, sve ti možeš, 1986: i svi smo u brežicama, svi pjevamo! mama, slovenija planira novu paštetu!
i'm reading about a guy eating a girl out to bring her memories back, whilst i'm trying to forget everything at the same time. life is truly funny sometimes. 💀
ako koristite ai i dalje, mrtvi ste za mene.
pa bog ih jebo glupe!
kaže se AJMO, ali kao što AI falsificira sve, tako falsificira i hrvatski jezik u marketinške svrhe. 💩💩💩
ja! 🥳🥳🥳
i'm online, but my brain isn't.
wanted to buy this book as soon as it came out, in 2023, but they were selling it for 30€. no, thanks. got it 3 years later for 7. brand new.
murata kiyoko's book looks interesting. never read federico andahazi. don't know what to expect. had my eyes on george meredith and thomas babington macaulay for a while. never even heard of anton de kom or vasily shukshin.
spring book haul! heard great things about maud ventura. read moa romanova in 2022. didn't want to give 33 euros for it tho. had to wait. read annie ernaux's shame, in original. cro edition was too expensive. bought it second hand. love edith wharton. wakoski & levertov could have been tra. better.
so depressed, i had to book a vacay right now. do i have the money for it? of course not! but i'll blow someone at the beach for $175k. that will cover it.
sometimes, i'm ashamed to say i'm an author. because - look at us! jesus fucking christ!
the question now is: should writers exist? i'm leaning towards no.
odvratna spodobetina
poslala sam fotku susjedi koja je u mjesnom odboru.
read smut till 4 AM. woke up three hours later and went birding. first thing i saw? two plovers mating. birds and i were obviously reading the same webtoones last night.
ovo bi u švici bila kaznena prijava samo takva!
dakle, žena došla u ovakvom autu ispred naše zgrade i iskrcala nepropisno HRPU smeća u nekakvim sivim vrećama i bacila stiropor u papir. doslovno smeće dovezlo smeće. kome da ja nju sad prijavim?
good editors are worth their weight in GOLD!
btw. windham-campbell prizes got their PR. all of it. at once. still, no video. the genius od helen dewitt - unmatched.
being a writer these days is truly depressing.
art isn't commerce. writing isn't contingent on public relations. big money has done some serious damage to literary scene. globally. authors have to be content creators & managers, literary agents, marketing experts? outgoing and healthy?! $175,000 isn't THAT much money.
you can't make a circus monkey out of every writer. kudos to dewitt. her commentary is a chef's kiss.
whenever i read robert musil, i don't know if i'd slap him or fuck him. dude was demented. so, probably both.
kod nas u piljari kg tikvica košta 6 i po eura. kilogram patlidžana 6 eura. toliko od mene, idem sad čučnuti negdje gdje ne dopire svjetlo.
as i've said on twitter before i deleted it: gaza was the training ground for the pain that now awaits the rest of us. and to those who think they're ready for hunger, power outages etc. no you're not.
