You Don’t Have to Return to Womanhood When there is a story we’ve heard a million times, so much that we know the beats before they happen–it becomes an archetype. While with any...

solomonskalozub.blogspot.com/2026/04/you-... Oh look, late night theory posting. I've wanted to write about this for a while.

This Is Just To Say

I have turned off
the AI features
that were in
the update

and which
you were probably
hoping
to monetize

Fuck you
they were stupid
so unnecessary
and so annoying

Put Honoria on Kobo. Added it to Kobo Plus because why not? Will keep y'all updated on how that goes

97.4% of survey say that writing being written by a human is very important

A reminder that when "authors" who turn to AI slop claim that "everyone's doing it and it's fine" they're talking absolute bollocks.

They're either in deep denial or they're just lying to try and normalise the practice at everyone else's expense.

Incredibly generous donations yesterday have pushed us to 50% of this goal. I cried a lot about it yesterday and this morning. I don't know what I've done to earn such wonderful friends and an amazing community, but I'll do whatever I can to make sure I return that support to you moving forward. 💜

So, my laptop’s hardware issues were a lot worse than I expected. About 95% of my writing is only accessible via flash drives/external hard drives.
I SHOULD be able to pay it and still break even, but anything to help recup my losses I’d be so grateful for.
Thank you ❤️

Stonewalll is done.

I've been thinking about the backlash Marie Kondo got and I think part of it was not just that she was saying "buy less shit" she was explicitly say "only buy what actually makes you happy" and in a nation of conspicuous consumption it pissed people off.

no prompt today bc it's time for all of you to buy gay books /silly

My brain hasn't really been here today but I'm doing my best anyway

The energy between us is orange cat.

I HATE THE WORD "CONTENT" WITH BURNING PASSION AND I WILL KEEP CALLING YALLS CRRATIVE WORKS EXACTLY THAT - YOUR CREATIONS, NOT FUCKING PRODUCT RAHHHHHHH

Yeah, that's what I'm gonna do, though I might go to my library if I can make it there, see if they have anything interesting.

My story actually takes place in a fictional village not far from Salem, set before the Trials. Do you have any resource recommendations?

The only problem with this new idea is I need to research early American colonial history, which I am NOT familiar with.
