Literally the only three things you need to know about Jane Austen

1. Her first major novel (Northanger Abbey) was written solely because she was so salty about how dramatic and cliche and formula Gothic novels were. You know what I mean. Every castle is foreboding. Every villain is awful but can’t bring himself to kill the heroine because she’s Too Pure. Every middle-aged female companion wants to do the heroine in. The heroine is Pure and Perfect and Is Good At Everything Young Women Should Be and recites quotes and/or the Bible whenever she’s in danger and that makes everything better. All butlers are evil. Jane Austen wrote a book specifically to go “THIS is how NORMAL people react to things!!!”

2. “She never changed her opinion about books or men”

3. “As a girl she wrote stories, including burlesques of popular romances” and you know what that means. Jane Austen started off writing smut fanfiction. If that’s not writing reassurement that you can be great no matter what you choose to write, I don’t know what is.

(Both quotes from the Penguin Classics version of Northanger Abbey)

Honestly I think all artists are cool and eccentric but writers are the epitome of chaos and creation

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, HG Wells, Rudyard Kipling, and a fuckton of other British writers formed a notoriously bad cricket team. Stephen King formed a rock band composed completely of writers called the Rock Bottom Remainders. Hans Christian Anderson got ONE bad review and was found lying facedown in the grass, SOBBING. In Charles Dicken’s yard, where he had UTTERLY overstayed his welcome. Oscar Wilde declared that he loved sucking dick and that cock sucking inspired him. Jane Austen wrote an entire book as a fuck you to gothic romance. William Golding wrote Lord of the Flies as a fuck you to those adventure books with British kids. Mary Shelley wrote an entire book as a fuck you and in the process created a whole new fucking genre.

Two things to take away from this information:

Writers travel in packs and you must beware them

All authors are always giving you the middle finger, subtly at best and directly at worst

Btw. I love you. Just in case you’ve forgotten that. But the words sound empty now. Hollow. And if you said them back I just wouldn’t believe them anymore

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! 🎃

I wish I knew the exact time and date that harry told snape ‘there’s no need to call me sir professor’ so that I could take a moment of silence to remember the moment each year

[marauders4evr]

Judging from the context of the chapter…

We know that it’s September 2nd. I’d put it between 9:00 AM and 11:00 AM. (They have breakfast and then a free period. They have Snape’s class before their break, which was before their lunch.)

[yaneela]

But in the UK first period typically only starts at 9 AM. So free period from around 9-10 AM and Snapes class from 10-11 AM I’d say.

[perhapsarat]

Okay so 10am-11am every September 2nd is now an hour dedicated to remembering the most glorious piece of dialogue ever spoken by a fictional character

[infiniteglitterfall]

ok this just appeared on my blog with ample time for you all to prepare because apparently I stumbled across it months ago, and scheduled it to post on september first. executive function TRIUMPH!!!!!!!

Sketch request for @hermionewazlib - That moment after Ron destroyed the Horcrux (after it hurt his little soul for a bit there. Awww)

“Simultaneously they walked forward and hugged, Harry gripping the still-sopping back of Ron’s jacket.“

I want to believe that Harry would also be a great godfather/uncle to Rose. And I can’t imagine these three apart for long.

Yesss Luna, do it! You’re probably the only one who could pull off that look anyway… :)

Phew! This is my longest comic to date. I didn’t want to cut out the Hermione sadness or the Luna goodness, so I decided to make it 13 panels long instead of 10! I hope you guys enjoy!! :)
