Blue Balliett, author of "Chasing Vermeer," talks about how illustrator Brett Helquist was able to make the paintings in the book so real, and also discusses the puzzles interwoven throughout the story and the power art can have.  The full interview from a 2004 episode of "Conversations On The Coast with Jim Foster" can be heard now wherever you get your podcasts.

7 Books (fiction)
Because if I write about politics I'm going to a-splode.
Over on the heffalump site, the hashtag of the moment is #7books. After making my list, I thought it’d be fun (for me, at least; your mileage may vary) to explain why they’re the seven that made a difference to me. Great photo you’re using there, Ridle 1. East of Eden by #JohnSteinbeck I’m always surprised when a classic lives up to the hype. I approach the “canon” novels with skepticism, but…

It's pretty simple. Instead of analysing Hermione's character and who she is as a person. What she wants how she develops as a character throughout series, they self insert themselves as Hermione and try to analyse her character through their own eyes and tastes.
Look at the common denominator those 3 guys have. They are rich. A lot and LOT of women priorities money over everything. Even as a woman I can admit to most women priorities money and status are way more than love, loyalty etc. They can tolerate being treated like shit and being abused if they get money and status. Ron is not rich. He comes from a working class family. He wears hand me down stuff. He has to work hard to get his success. That's the biggest turn off for those women(mostly white women). Now they self insert as Hermione as she is the primary female lead and they don't like her choice. So they try to tear apart Ron and Hermione's relationship with completely ooc charactization.
Ron was never ever jealous or insecure of Hermione in the whole 7books. Not. A. Single. Time. Quite contrary, he was proud of her achivements. Ron's whole character arc is him getting over his insecurities and self doubts. That's why the line 'its me. I am extremely famous' in the epilogue was added.
But I am like 99.99% sure these ppl are primarily going by movies and not books even though they claim they are going by books. And their character analysis is also developed by ooc fanfics. Otherwise I refuse to accept any sane person with a working brain and common sense can say Draco makes sense as a partner.
i’ve seen relationship therapists and psychologists analyse hermione and ron’s relationship and conclude that they wouldn’t work out in the long run. they’ve argued for hermione to be with harry, krum, even DRACO (don’t understand how a counsellor can vow for canon dramione but alright) as an alternative partner for hermione since ron is “too insecure” to be with her and match her intelligent prowess or what have you.
i seriously don’t understand this sentiment. ron and hermione genuinely seem (almost) perfect to me, maybe not in the movies (a common denominator of people who don’t like romione is that they always cite evidence from the movies, since the films took a lot away from ron’s character and his growth), but definitely in the books.
looking at ron’s insecurities, a lot of people dredge his inferiority complex up to toxic masculinity primarily, when it was more explored how it was an effect of his home life (not gonna argue toxic masculinity wasn’t a factor, they’re teenagers in the 90s written by a pretty misogynistic woman so…). he was the youngest son out of how many children? all of his older brothers were brilliant in some way. bill was an extremely gifted spellcaster, charlie was gifted with magical beasts, percy’s academic score was unmatched, and fred and george (despite their trouble) were entrepreneurial inventor-geniuses. ron, on the other hand, was quite literally born a disappointment to his mother, who conceived him specifically because she wanted a daughter, whilst ginny was born her favourite (though, even then, ginny was gifted at quidditch). ron was mediocre in every sense of the word, and his two best friends were harry (one of the most famous wizards) and hermione (the smartest witch of her age yada yada). and i’ve seen people argue that harry was more welcomed by molly into the weasley household than ron ever was. this isn’t even mentioning the amount of bullshit he copped for being poor (people always downplay the blow to confidence being in poverty can have on a person who is constantly surrounded by people who not only have more, but look down on him for simply being unlucky as to not have what they do).
so yeah, ron was an envious kid, but he was that way not because he was an evil patriarchal conception but because he was lowkey neglected. and even then he was overall an extremely devoted and loyal friend to both harry and hermione, because he did genuinely love them.
there were many moments of ron standing up for hermione that was cut from the films, not as a guy who was romantically interested in her, but as a friend. ron arguing with snape for making hermione cry is one of my fav scenes in the books ru kidding me, and in the movies he AGREED with snape RU KIDDING ME. not to mention how ron was a sobbing violent mess when hermione was getting tortured in the last book, whereas he wasn’t nearly as bothered in the films. and the films cut out harry being a dick to ron about his familial concerns (in dh), so when ron left it seemed like a random dickish move over his jealousy towards harry and hermione’s relationship.
there’s also a million moments where they minimised ron’s usefulness in the books for comedic purposes (forbidden forest with aragog, troll scene, devils snare scene) so ron seems dumber than he is. like, he’s actually smart and a really good spellcaster…. in the books.
so simply by stating this most of the arguments against romione become void. “he’s too stupid/weak for her” simply not true. “he’s a terrible friend who doesn’t stand up for her” also not true. “he’s too insecure to have made a move on her,” yes, but given the context i don’t think people would freak on about ron’s upbringing, i think many would be more understanding, especially considering his growth. even if he wasn’t insecure, hermione is beyond incredible and is bound to make anyone nervous when pursuing her (not an excuse for ron to act like a dick, but it does explain a lot where the movies don’t). “they argue too much” they bump heads, none of the arguments they have are actually super damning, with the exception of ron leaving in deathly hallows.
maybe i’ve covered everything (excluding the abhorrent amount of classism that clouds people’s judgments around how they view ron when harping about how hermione deserves better? hopefully).
now, i know people won’t like me mentioning the cursed child, but i’m going to considering we actually get an insight of their life as a longterm married couple there. a lot of ron stans hated how ron was the only character that wasn’t doing something incredible. harry was head of the aurors, ginny was a famous quidditch player retired to a famous journalist, neville was a hogwarts professor, hermione was quite literally minister on magic. and ron…. ran the joke shop with george.
and i think this was almost the perfect route to go down for ron. because he was average, and was perfectly fine with just being average. hello?? that speaks leagues of growth for his character. he’s supportive of hermione’s work, he grounds her when she gets too caught up in being the literal president of wizarding society, and he still viciously defends her, minister or not. in fact, he’s proud to simply be known as hermione’s husband because he doesn’t feel the need to prove to anyone else his worth. the people he loves most know his worth, hermione never downplays or underestimates him, they are complete equals in the relationship in every single way that matters. they kept ron’s best qualities whilst making him seem more of a healed person. they work so well as a married couple without it seeming like mischaracterisation (not to mention the cursed child literally shows how those two are in love in every reality, so there quite literally can’t be a better partner for hermione or ron according to canon).
so i really don’t understand how professional relationship counsellors can go online and denounce it. probs because they only watched the movies, but it’s 2023 and ron stans should not STILL be fighting for their lives trying to defend him from people who simply don’t consume media with as much depth (which is fine, but one should clarify if they’re talking about the movies because i’ve seen people state they’re talking about the hp BOOKS when it’s simply just…. the films). anyways. romione on top, thanks to coming to my ted talk.

Technically still in time for Day 7 of the #7books challenge. The Stars My Destination is probably the first real subversive thing I ever read, and I've always found it funny the same person who recommended it to me also recommended Ender's Game. They are VERY different. But who knew Ender's Shadow would be even better? (Orson Scott Card is still an asshole tho.) https://www.instagram.com/robofwar/p/BvVpbWfg2bj/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=kfqje5jrvo8j

In the spirit of reviving paper books, I have been challenged to post the covers of 7 books I love (1 a day, no comment, just the cover). However, since I am dreadful at following through with these things... here's 10 of them all at once, celebrating some of the authors I've been fortunate enough to know / meet. #7books #7booksilove #authors #writing #amwriting #books https://www.instagram.com/thecubanwitch/p/BtYzCMhH-u5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=334osphvgvwh

Women coming together and laughing at men not getting enough "representation" in choices is the best thing I've read today on Tumblr.
I will never mind if a book has both gender choices.
But most men i know who played female only books like TRR, LH, D&D did not like the books as much as the women did. The fanbase for these books were largely female. And there is nothing wrong with PB giving us women some attention. If we are the predominant spenders in their app that's exactly what they are going to focus on.
Also if there were absolutely no male MC books then I would have agreed that PB should release more books for male players.
But there are books with male MCs like NB, AtV, PtR, OH, HSS, TE. So just stick to those books. Not everything in this world needs to be catered to your special needs.
In fact Wishful Thinking is the ONLY female book currently being updated this week. Out of 7books, 6books have male MCs (85% of content is for both male and female audiences)
By June 10 books will be out. (WT, HSS, PtR, NB, OH, TE, BB, ACoR, RCD, Plat) 5 will have male MCs. 50% of books cater to both.
So dear people who want to play as men , you will always have some games on Choices you can play . :) Not every story has to cater to everybody's need. 🙄
