When people tell me that they want to get back into reading but can’t seem to find THAT BOOK, I have some go-to recs based on what made them love reading in the first place — here are 56 of them 🧵

I may regret sharing this, but I have a very personal story I would like to tell. I hope it doesn't get too long... Anyway... I was 20 years old when I was sent to erase a man from existence and became haunted by him.

types of NaNoWriMo writers - has an outline ready, here to win, sleeps exactly never - changed project last minute, has screamed and will scream again - hasn't got a plot but has snacks which is kind of the same thing - just a pile of typos in a trench coat

why writers look confused - wrote something very good and surprised ourselves - took a little writing break and forgot how to start again - have been informed books do not write themselves - confusion is just our face - we have no idea what's going on

A reminder of the word ‘forswunk’ (13th century): exhausted from too much work. To be ‘foreswunk’ is to be exhausted before you even begin.

my two moods while editing always are (1) i am so in love with this book (2) i have read this chapter so many times it no longer makes sense and the alphabet is fake and i cannot gauge whether any of this is good because i have stared at it for too long

You are never too old for YA books, putting interestingly shaped rocks in your pocket, or shapeshifting into a tree part time to escape people you don't like.

writer problems - wanting to write everything all at once - forgetting how you described your character so simply never describing them again - researching something for 2hours to write 1 accurate sentence - genuinely missing your characters when you finish writing

the hardest parts of being a writer 1) compacting the cinematic masterpiece in your head into actual WORDS 2) when you stare at the screen too long and instead of finding words, you find you are snackish
