Every 21st century piece of writing advice: Make us CARE about the character from page 1! Make us empathize with them! Make them interesting and different but still relatable and likable!

Every piece of classic literature: Hi. It's me. The bland everyman whose only purpose is to tell you this story. I have no actual personality. Here's the story of the time I encountered the worst people I ever met in my life. But first, ten pages of description about the place in which I met them.

[sandersstudies]

Modern writing advice: Yes your protagonist should have flaws but ultimately we should root for them and like them from the beginning :)

Charles Dickens: Here is the worst ugliest rudest meanest nastiest bitch you’ve ever met in your life.

[sandersstudies]

Modern writing advice: Make sure your POV character goes through a significant arc! Make sure they are changed by the narrative! Make sure they learn a lesson!

Narrators of every book of the 19th century: the lesson I learned is these people fucking suck, sayonara you freaks

[sandersstudies]

Modern writing advice: It’s all about the character overcoming obstacles and learning! They learn their lesson so they can fix their mistakes and make good choices in the future! It’s a character arc! It’s called growth! Readers love it!

Everyone from ancient times through the 19th century: would you like to watch a Guy fuck up twenty times in a row

09/02/21 Downplayed version of the fit so I could confidently leave my place lol. Swapped: low rise jeans for high waist, taller chunky platforms for boots, waaay less flashy earrings. Removed all my gold rings bc it was HOT.

Thank you @coquinas, @heshefey, & @batmanz-cat for nice words 😊

Have you ever been curious about the meaning and symbolism behind a variety of flowers? No? Just me? Well, in any case, one of my spring-ish reads this year is Floriography by Jessica Roux. I fell in love at first sight with the cover and am enamored with the artwork of the flowers inside. What are you all reading this spring? #springreading #springtime #floriography https://www.instagram.com/p/CqHSZ3MLEVb/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I never knew that she was a redhead. I always see her depicted with black hair and white strips.

Well, it sure has been a while since I posted anything bookish, lol. My first read of 2023 is Utopia Avenue by David Mitchell. It’s historical fiction about the story of an up and coming British band in the… 60s I wanna say. Can’t wait ti finish it! #amreading #amwriting #amreadingfiction https://www.instagram.com/p/Co-AWVrrzC5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#this is the only money cat i will reblog because it’s actually doing the manekineko pose151,646 notes (via lolwhutninja)

OMG YOU’RE RIGHT

[nonespark-blog]

and it has its right paw up! the correct paw for this. and from the markings on its ears, it looks like it might be a calico cat. which is the luckiest kind!

[carrionbeast]

[ladynorbert]

I don’t even care if it actually works, I’m mostly reblogging because it’s freaking adorable.

Y’know I reblogged this a bit ago and was saved from financial probation and getting kicked out of school because of it, just mere months from graduation. Got a call from the financial aid advisor telling me that they made a mistake with filing my account (or some other sort of clerical error) and said that, basically, they owe me money. Welp.

[winjennster]

Last time I reblogged the money cat, I won two $100 gift cards at work.

[kaepop-oppa]

Damn.

[mmusclechan]

KITTY. YOU CAME BACK. AGAIN. YAYY.
