It's a strange sort of Saturday in the tower. So, we're celebrating with a strange sort of poem.
"The House" by @cthompswrites

my little poem, ‘After Bathing, I Yearn for Smoke’ was published today at 433 Magazine :o) give it a read if you’re feeling funky

Hayloft by Christel Thompson (@CThompsWrites) on giallo:

Current (typed) word count, including a character outline, sits at 4,863 words.
To win NaNo, I need to reach a goal of 50,000– and I’m a little goblin who has a compulsion to scribble all first drafts into a notebook before typing them out; and this makes me kinda shit (1/2)
#NaNo WIP, or otherwise known as Existential Personhood Battle Royale WIP (Ex-Royale for short, maybe?) is a something I would gently elevator pitch as a adult speculative-fiction, with a Neon Genesis Evangelion sun, a Stephen King moon, and a Watchmen-esque rising.
Literally forgot this account exists because I am the living worst. However— I am doing NaNo! Will probably dump all of my thoughts about it here so I don’t harass my non-writing followers

Hello friends: I have a new short story out! It’s been quite a while since I’ve published fiction (thanks to my love-affair with poetry), but if you’d like to read it, the link will be in the replies below. Many thanks to @Pierto_Co for believing in me and my little words 🖤

Things I love writing:
1) ~p a l p a b l e t e n s i o n~
2) hate-to-love relationships
3) dream sequences
Things I dread writing:
1) opening sentences
2) scenes that describe pandemonium/crowds
3) complicated/drawn out action sequences
(ty @heregoesthesun for the tag!)

Hi! This is racist!
Comments in this vein may seem like “just a joke”, but are steeped in deep-rooted prejudices against Asian people and shouldn’t be getting 100+ likes in 2019. If you love your Asian friends, don’t mock them. Instead, learn from, listen to, and support them.
Uhhhhh so I just finished The Devouring Gray by @christineexists and ya girl is shaken like a gotdamn margarita. The CHARACTERS, the ATMOSPHERE, I just.....*chefs kiss*

So I bought a second-hand, $3.97 copy of “Borne”, by @jeffvandermeer (one of my favourite authors) from Thriftbooks, right? Well it arrived today...AND IS *SOMEHOW* a copy that includes his personalised, handwritten annotations and a 3-page letter!? WHAT IS GOING ON!!!!
Question for #gusandeddy: what hot takes do y’all have about this nationwide college admissions scam that Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin are a part of? And more broadly: what are your opinions on the for-profit college education system as a whole?
