Just a reminder that if you're excited about Mamdani, you can join your local @demsocialists.bsky.social chapter!
I did this morning because I want to see and support more candidates like him.
My hope is fragile and tender, but still clinging on. Change is possible.

October was a great month for reading. While it wasn't my highest rated, my favorite read of the month was actually The Starving Saints by Caitlin Starling.
Here's to another month full of new stories and worlds.

Been struggling with migraines and medication side effects and just... *gestures at everything*. But I wrote a few hundred words today, so I'm taking that small win.

Just finished The Starving Saints by Caitlin Starling!
4/5⭐
Wow! The world of this novel is vivid and inventive right from the first page. I absolutely devoured it (pun intended). It wasn't perfect, but it was undoubtedly one of my favorite reads of the year!

The thing about writing is that the first draft has to be perfect.

This October, I'm trying to read some classic horror. I'm a little bit of a chicken, so wish me luck on this journey into The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson.
Any other classic horror recommendations I should add to my list?

I read this book earlier this year and cannot begin to explain how inspiring it was to me.
If you're a writer or just curious about the writing process, this is a fantastic read.

Currently struggling with short story revisions. I think of my stories as trapped in a dark room and my job is to illuminate just enough to drive the theme and narrative.
But what to illuminate? What to leave in the dark? It's a process... Can anyone relate?

Next up on my reading list is Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl.
I know this will be a hard read but the question of purpose and meaning is one that has been weighing heavily on me in recent years. I hope to find guidance here.

September reading wrap-up! Not my best month, not my worst. Certainly an eclectic list.
Katabasis was easily my favorite read of the month. Looking forward to an October full of new pages!

For every 2-4 fiction books I read, I try and slip something nonfiction in. This time, I'm trying to educate myself on the ideologies behind anarchism, communism, and socialism from one of the greats.

I just finished this short yet meaningful little read. It's really best if you go into it without knowing much, so I won't spoil it. But it's a 4/5⭐ in my book and gave me a lot to think on.

I'm actually always #currentlyreading Women Living Deliciously by Florence Given.
I try to re-read a few pages a night, as a reminder to myself. I recommend this to every woman (all inclusive! femme in any way!) who is looking to find their joy. More below 👇

On the heels of my first rejection, I got a call from a friend who had read the same story. They said it was beautiful and they had been moved to tears.
A good reminder that it's not all about the credentials. My heart is very full today. 🖤
