Hey #writingcommunity if you’re a fan of X-men, True Blood, Lovecraft Country, Charmed, Buffy, Blade..I’m writing a ton of stuff in black sci-fi/ witchy southern gothic style worlds.
It’s also nice to have a job where once I clock out that’s it. Nothing else to think about til I clock back in. None of that “marketing needs you to find..”

No. Marketing CAN’T find bc marketing isn’t diverse enough to know. Marketing needs to work to THEIR strengths

There are many smart people in the romance genre. Whenever I get to hear @adrianaherrera.bsky.social speak about romance, it’s a treat.

Great episode of We Read It One Night podcast with Adriana Herrera as a guest.

As a person with depression it’s such a metaphor like you’re going thru it a bit. It’s just a phase. You’re still useful underneath. You still has purpose and value.
Your grime doesn’t decide your value.
You just need a little nutrients, water and some care. Pour back into you. Take care of you.
It’s just something about putting some salt over some grime on a cast iron and watching it rub clean off with a wet sponge. It’s so satisfying

Responses to things I’ve said on Threads that have made me break the fourth wall

“This bacon from Aldi is poor quality”

Threads: sure is that’s why I don’t get my produce from Aldi.

“I hate bread & butter pickles”

Threads: someone explain? Why would you eat bread and butter and pickles??

I think once I’m done with everything I’m working on I’m going to work on some romance with these vibes.

You know how many terrible men BW know that have things like “protect Black women” in their bio? A virtue signal don’t mean shit to us.

I’m not a huge fan of this dress, particularly the neckline. (It’s Victoria Beckham if you wanted to know) but these shoes. I really like these shoes

Bc at the end of the day discernment and comprehension in this country is off. I don’t care to be perceived by most people. I don’t know what the hell they got going on upstairs anyway.

And it never comes off as genuine or well intended when white folk do this to me bc here we are on an app where there’s ppl you could scrutinize but you found your way to my Black ass and are asking me to perform for you.

No.
It feels like I’m talking to a cop. How long until the investigation is over? I don’t wanna perform I wanna do. More ppl should do and not perform and stop looking for others to perform with them.

I am not a virtue signaling person and what happens here a lot is ppl will start a convo that is basically this untranslated

Them: ah yes I see you like XYZ, I too like XYZ and human rights.

Thank you to whoever stopped Tyrese from hooting and hollering all over Sweet Lady. That song is perfect

while I loved the dynamic btwn Simon and Trevor this man has had a longer run in the MCU and more character transformation than most women MCU characters ever see. He’d had a total of 4 appearances now across 13 years meanwhile we have lost characters like Scarlet Witch or never seen America again
