Fish In Exile by Vi Khi Nao is honestly the best piece of literature i think i've ever read in my entire life. i don't think i'll ever recover from this.
like, you ever read something and it just immediately tangles itself into your soul, your being, and feels like it's speaking directly into your heart??? whispering these words into your essence like the voice of god because THAT'S HOW I FEEL RIGHT NOW.
#fish in exile vi khi nao#i am filled with such a visceral sense of awe and envy#i want to write like this#i want to be her when i grow up#i am inconsolable#this has actually changed my life girl WHAT??????#Vi Khi Nao the GOD THAT YOU ARE!!!!!!!!!!#vi khi nao

I wanted to announce that my new collection of strange tiny plays (or microfictions or prose poems) is out now! It's the first book released by X-R-A-Y & I couldn't be more pleased with how it turned out. Die-cut cover designed by David Wojciechowski, art by Isabella Cotier, with interior illustrations by Matt Schumacher. So excited to have this one out in the world. Please grab a copy and/or spread the word if you can!
Praise for Cardboard Clouds:
“I was occasionally reminded of Daniil Kharms and Lewis Carroll, but that won’t surprise you. These dark one act plays are strangely comforting and addictive.” — Alex van Warmerdam, Palme d'Or nominated writer/director of BORGMAN & THE NORTHERNERS
“So many cardboard boxes here, you may need to forklift your way out of this fabulous language theater.” — Vi Khi Nao, playwright & author of WAITING FOR GOD & FUNERAL (w/ Daisuke Shen)
“It is my fervent hope that these plays are some day staged, and that the performance never ends.” — Jeremy Radin, actor & author of DEAR SAL & SLOW DANCE WITH SASQUATCH

i should start dabbling in magical realism
#i just think#it'd be such a banger with my style of writing yknow#and OKAY!!! maybe im trying to become the love child of James Joyce Angela Carter and Vi Khi Nao so what#but on the the flipside: the comments i get on my prose already might push me over the edge so#we'll see

Hi! Are you planning on continuing the Winter Soldier AU for Price? It's so good!! 😩
thanks!!! and yes! i'm writing the last leg of part one right now so if all goes well, it should be posted sometime this week.
i also posted a bit on my sideblog too @/dvchvnde! but here's some to set the mood;
#i love love love Fish in Exile by Vi Khi Nao#one of my favourite books of all time#but im wondering how easily it would translate to something i wrote and i guess this is my experimental piece inspired by it#but anyway#fic: desolate and empty is the sea#captain john price x reader
