New Library · 7:26pm Jan 7th, 2022

Hiya, lovely peeps!

New year, new library.

So in mid-December I was browsing through my libraries, trying to find a story that I wanted to re-read, and that’s when I realized that the three libraries I had (Honest Favorites, Happy Upvotes, and Most Wonderful Stories) were a little too full.

Genre VS Literary and the Cult of Twitter · 7:53pm Jun 14th, 2019

Hey readers! Got an interesting one for you today. Sort of a call-back, almost, to last week’s post on “pulp” not being a stand-in for “fun.” Once again, brought up by an online discussion I saw in a reading sphere.

Being a Better Writer: What Makes a Fantasy? · 9:57pm Nov 7th, 2022

Being a Better Writer: Should You Read the “Pillars” of Sci-Fi/Fantasy? · 8:46pm Mar 13th, 2023

Good afternoon readers! Yes, I know today’s post is a little late. Just a tad. And that’s for a reason. The same reason, in fact, it might be a bit rougher than normal: I’m ill today, but didn’t feel like skipping a week of Being a Better Writer. So my mind is a little muddled.
