Robin McKinley Rocks

I am a fan of Robin McKinley's writings. I am not affiliated with her or her publishers, just someone with an extreme love for books, especially those written by Robin McKinley. My name's Madi.

and while we’re at it, fuck this idea that ONE ACCOUNT has to belong uniquely to ONE PERSON. This is the same thing these silicon valley fucks want; their vision of the future where everyone has a unique biometric ID code implanted in their body is the ultimate extension of Netflix’s “no password sharing” policy. You want to use your friend’s car? Sorry, you can’t, you need to be an authorized user. Your mother wants to let you look something up on her OED account? Too bad! That’s only for her! The concept of perfect market efficiency gives them greedy little money bag eyes.

If I pay money to have a newspaper sent to my house, they don’t charge me extra when I show it to my dad. This password sharing thing isn’t just a Netflix problem; don’t be surprised if it shows up elsewhere in other forms. Stamp this idea out now or we’ll be stuck with it.

This is by far the most popular post I have and I have to say: good, I’m right. Password sharing and ID verification are going to kill the internet. not oooh in 50 years. in like 5 more.

hey, generally speaking i am pro-pirating but there is post going around with a free version of Maus by Art Spiegelman on a google doc and i am genuinely asking you all to not reblog it. Art Spiegelman is still alive. he still makes money off of Maus. and what is being monetized is his generational trauma as the son of a holocaust survivor. please either buy Maus or get it from the library (libraries also benefit the author and when more people request or check out a book it communicates to the library that they need more copies). pirating Maus is very different than pirating a marvel movie or reading a google doc of a book no longer in print. please use critical thinking.

MY DUDES

Does anyone have any female written high fantasy recs?

I love fantasy as a genre, but I never read it because I’m afraid of:

“Her breasts were dainty, and her lips were full, as if they were perpetually pursed to leave a scathing review on a Yelp! Message board. ”

You know?

Any recs would be HIGHLY appreciated.

[youthbookreview]

Ahhh I don’t read much high fantasy but I’d love some recs by female authors, too.

Robin McKinley writes fantasy and fairy tale retellings that are amazing

Almond milk latte, almond croissant, and my next read for @bibliophilicwitch’s tomes and tea.

It's funny, because I had thought, living through those first two months after the nights at the lake, that the great crisis was about What I Was or Who I'd Become or What Terrible Thing Was Wrong With Me (and About to Go Wronger) and Why All Was Changed As a Result. But I was still struggling against the idea that all was changed.

Over the last year and a bit since I started posting my scribbles a little more actively to the internets I’ve had several messages asking have I read Robin McKinley’s book “Beauty- a retelling of the story of beauty and the beast” and up until yesterday the answer was no.  Well not any more.  I spotted it on amazon for under five quid while doing other Christmas shopping and finally gave in and oh my goodness it was so goddamn adorable!   Thank you all who recommended it!

Quick pencil sketches and SAI.
