Please stop using language that suggests that people with criminal records are appropriate targets for this administration's violence. One in three adults has a criminal record. Stop playing sacrifice games with fascists. Stop surrendering entire categories of people in your own mind.

Someone read one of my books and said to me, "Fucking hell, how did you manage to keep ALL THAT in your head?" I told them it's actually extremely simple and anyone can do it. You just need to forget everything else important in your life and totally stop functioning as a human for a year or so.

this is the ideal for the part of me that got into prose poems and decided it'll be a good idea to compose a novel out of them

why write 300 pages when you can accomplish the same thing in ~30
sketch a short scene for a story then realise it's done the job & you don't need to write the story
