The Sound - I Can't Escape Myself

Such a great song with a perfect matching of images from David Lynch's 'The Grandmother' Great work 'My little underground TV'

[amywritesthings]

early this morning i told my partner i was going to announce an indefinite hiatus and abandon my writing altogether while i deal with the grief of what's happening.

i decided to check tiktok (instinct when i'm waiting for my bagel to heat up) -- the first video was someone saying 'running to spend the week reading fanfic and nothing else'. comments upon comments were asking for fluffy, immersive fics of any kind just to keep people going. to feel something. to have some kind of hope.

my mom and i had a lengthy conversation at 6am about everything, and something she said curbed my crying instantly: "do not let those motherfuckers take your light."

so i won't.

i have really incredible people who interact with my stories, this is my joy and safe space, and as hard as things are right now, as hopeless as i may feel, i can create art and help put some good out there in a time where that light feels dimmed. i will still be kind to myself -- i'm still processing, and i'm sure i won't feel right for a very long time -- but quitting writing and disappearing would only bring joy to the people who want to police art, fiction, humanity.

so i will be working on the drabble challenge through november. i will still post a poll about amymas sometime later this week. i will still open my docs for silver underground, dating mode, seven days, etc. i may need more time. i may be slow. i may start an entirely new wip to cope. but i'll still create.

Me: -in a tv watching mood and having finished skeleton crew and enjoyed a couple more episodes of the british show the avengers-

Me: what if I

Me: what if I watched the western episode with my cowboy in it. again. what if I did that.

unironically love it when people say things like 'this OBVIOUSLY was meant to be about [insert hyperspecific thing which is dependent on that person's specific experience]'

my darling, no, it is not obvious

you are looking in a mirror

the truth you see reflected in the art is a part of yourself

this work was not made for you

your reading of it was, though

if you feel seen, it is because you are seeing yourself

thank you for showing me this part of you

fandom will see the most interesting deep and nuanced character and reduce their entire plot and portrayal to "slutty sexy slut needs to get railed" and it's honestly so tiring
