    A quick Slamjam postmortem note

    So, the creator of one of the OCs I wrote about just about flipped his lid at me because I gave his character a gay shipping story, ruining his message of platonic bromance and emotionally vulnerable heterosexual dudes.

    Part 1: Poetry

    “But I hate poetry” well that’s because you’re doing it wrong. A poem of the type that we were told to write in this class is just a short, condensed piece of work that shows who you are and what you do as a writer.

    Lesson 0: Learn the rules before you break them

    I know full well that I'm talking down to a lot of people in this post--my excuse is that writing it out is also a way for me to refresh the lessons in my own mind. Story tags are because I plan to go back and "grade myself" based on my own advice as i write these.

    All is right in ponydom

    I know, I said I would do a thing, and then I didn't.

    I will. I promise. Next post.

    Knighty HATES him! Honolulu-area baker reveals how to improve your writing with 3 simple rules!

    I’ve seen it a few times, and you probably have too: people will say stuff along the lines of “I bet this person took a community college course in creative writing and now they think they're so great.” It’s a very resonant insult for classists like me. Besides, it’s rooted in fact: the level of literacy needed to pass community college courses in this town is miserably low.

Something you don't want to read. · 9:57am Jul 3rd, 2014

Someone I respect greatly has written something I respect greatly.

You don't want to read it. And if you read it--you won't enjoy it. You're not supposed to.

There is rape fantasy, there is uncomfortably-not-taking-refuge-in-fantasy rape fantasy, and then there is Fall of Equestria.

Fall of Equestria's fetish is not rape. It is torture, suffering, misery, and hopelessness. Getting off on it requires either

a) actually having a fetish for suffering and misery

b) blocking out the fact that the themes of misogyny and slavery are broad and deep; they are the whole idea of the thing; they are not meant as a framing device that ultimately yields center stage to the expected BDSM

It's on my read later list, somewhat like how Requiem for a Dream is a movie one should watch... once.
