My Strahliana faux cover art is finally done!! Ft Ahleri, Nimble, Bertie, That White Bird, and a bunch of Australian inspired animals and flower motifs. Her armour includes a bunch of opals too, which Aus is famous for, and around the edges are some nods to Ahleri’s “sheep” farm upbringing (the sheep are giant woolly quokka/roo beasts called woollabys)
i like it when an evil character dies unrepentant and that itself is narratively framed as a great tragedy. when their death scene is very uncomfortable and sobering instead of triumphant for the heroes. when it’s less about what they’ve done and more about what they’ve failed to do, less who they were and more who they failed to ever become… yeeeaaahhhh
they got married btw
oh you’re not kidding
I'm not sure what mood this is but it sure is one
it’s a spoiler alert
She’s definitely spoiling her dinner.

This post has been sitting in my drafts for 4 years. Thank you @ihatebrainstorm for making this joke possible.
star wars said baby girl i will show you intergenerational trauma like you have never seen
film series of "suffering is a cyclical process where people in pain are imperfect and inflict that pain on others, even on a massive scale, and the only way to break free from all that rage and pain is pure love baby"
star wars said baby girl it's not about deserving the redemption it's about stopping the horror, because no one who deserves a redemption actually needs one, and love isn't about deserving
There are multiple chapters that are set in hospitals where the characters are attempting to recover from injuries that never fully heal. I must once again stress that my experience in WWI was perfectly normal.
There is a giant horrible mudplain full of unrecoverable and perfectly preserved dead bodies that the characters have to walk through in a land where the air is poisoned gas, and on a compLETELY UNRELATED NOTE: WWI WAS TOTALLY FINE AND NORMAL!!
And why are you all saying lotr was also a way for me to process the trauma and horror I experienced watching my own sons and students fight in WWII. Just because one of my characters longs to fight alongside her loved ones to save her country instead of being told to stay put, keep calm, and carry on while the world around her completely falls apart and all hope seems lost…..made to silently bear witness to the death and destruction of her people and the lands she is unable to protect….
Yes, I began writing these books during WWII while my sons were actively on the front lines, but my experience watching the young people I loved and taught dying to save me and my country from invasion in WWII bc my generation did not in fact end all wars WAS TOTALLY FINE AND NORMAL!!
I don't think Tolkien ever denied that his experiences of war shaped his books. What he said was that his books are not an allegory for specific wars, which is different.

30. FREEBIE QUESTION!!
I think that many people who find Mary Bennet relatable, imagine her to be like Fanny Price. Mary is a pretentious, not very bright show-off. It is Fanny who is a neglected, abused, intelligent introvert.
My friends and I all took a “which Jane Austen love interest would you fall for?” and I was like ooh ooh I hope I get Mr. Knightley. But also if they have Henry Tilney on there he’s super underrated and I would get his humor better than Catherine anyway so I want him too. One of my friends said she wanted Mr. Darcy and I was like eh hard pass. Everyone looked at me like I committed sacrilege and I was like look! I love him! As a character! And I think he’s great for Elizabeth! I am really super happy that Elizabeth ended up with him. And also perfectly content to not be Elizabeth because he’s just not for me. And then we took the test and I got Mr. Darcy and one of my friends said “I forgot not liking him was a prerequisite for falling in love with him” and I threw my phone at her (spiritually, not physically, bc phones are expensive)
