i think my main issue with writing fiction is truthfully i have an analysis essay brain and don't know how to say things in a manner that isn't insanely clinical but in my defense it also takes a strong heart to explain the whole bertilak+lady bertilak/gawain situation in academia-acceptable terminology. or it was a struggle for me

#this semester. i haven't chosen a topic yet. haven't read all the books yet #last semester i. well i did not start as early as i should have but i had a topic by this point just bc #i already knew macbeth. idk any of these books #im thinking of writing on male homoeroticism from a historical perspective on like. how it was fine and normal #but that's only gilgamesh so far. lysistrata and tartuffe didn't have that #tartuffe has it but it's a negative implication. so i might need to choose another topic bc we're getting into 1900s and later books now i #think. but it would probably do me good to step out of the gender and sexuality analysis and do something Different For Once #difference is a very old and serious work vs 1600s comedy ft. a couple throwaway lines on how two men should marry
