how's the fic writing going? it's fun to see you on here gathering inspiration :) also i love red wine so i'm gonna need to know what kind you're enjoying this evening

The writing is going well! Truth be told, I recently binged Stranger Things and got a little sidetracked drifting into that world. (I love Eleven, Steve, Hopper, and Joyce the best.) But I’m doing a lot of coffeeshop work dates with friends and am hoping to use those to power through the final edits of the next WCOOC chapter. 

So, idk if you’re US based, but if you are, listen up. I’m drinking La Peña de España, which you can find for like $7 at any Trader Joe’s. It’s a red blend actually (which shows just how not classy I am), but it’s great. My usual strategy for buying wine is any Spanish or South American red under $15. Never fails.

I couldn’t be more excited about #1. Also, for #2- would you be willing to write fic for Dare Mare (the novel?) and #3- HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 

I’d love to write fic for Dare Me! I’ll PM you :) and thank you so much!

Thank you so very much!

happy happy birthday! it’s such a joy to see you back here :)

Thank you! <3 it’s so nice to be back and interacting with familiar “faces” (whatever the tumblr equivalent of that might be!).

C, G, M, T :)

Why thank you!

C. Currently Reading

Tomorrow I begin The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde, which I am looking forward to.

G. Glad You Gave This Book A Chance

On holiday in Cornwall when I was thirteen I’d ploughed through all my books in the first few days and the campsite shop had romances, thrillers… and a cheap, crappy edition of Vanity Fair which I plumped for in a best of a bad bunch situation. Obviously that turned out not to be the case at all. I was - I am - besotted. I think that marked my transition from the kids classics to loving them into adulthood.

M. Major Book Hangover Because Of

I don’t know about “hangover” but I was a nervous wreck for weeks after reading I, Claudius, imagining assassination attempts from Roman senators bursting out of my wardrobe.

T. Three Of Your All-Time Favorite Books

Too hard, too hard. Thirty might just about begin to cover it. Some I might not have mentioned before: The Handmaid’s Tale. The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. The Cazalet Chronicles.

It is the greatest of all time. Durance, Mack, and Kreuk should have done commentary on every episode, tbh.

man, i think about this so much. i would drop everything right now and rewatch every episode if i could just listen to them talk through the whole thing. i would thoroughly enjoy that.

foooolintherain replied to your post “foooolintherain replied to your post: s :)ugh u changed ur name. THIS...”

what if she doesn't come back...

OKAY YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH WE DON’T TALK ABOUT THAT. actually we do talk about that but not so NEGATIVELY DEAR GOD WHO RAISED YOU. but forreal i am very confident that she will be back for season 3 the stars are aligning QUITE NICELY. plus the showrunner has been talking about PLANS for the character in season 3 and i kind of took that as an unofficial confirmation that we’ll probably definitely see her again (and that for some reason she’ll be half naked *fist pump*)

shadowcats replied to your post “s :)”

wow.

don’t even pretend to be surprised. you barely made the cut and you know it.

Hang in there!!!

Eek! You can do it!

THANK YOU ALL for being so sweet in response to my little lunchtime freak out <3 All I can see between me and April is a mountain of work but the next three weeks in particular is going to be berserk. 

I have, however, been having some fun learning Illustrator and will be giving birth to my first infographic very soon.
