So THAT'S what she meant

Sirius totally is the kind of guy to use overconfidence and humour as a coping mechanism. He can fluctuate from "I'm the greatest gift to wizard kind" to "I don't deserve to even exist, I'm sorry for breathing" in seconds and I don't know how Remus manages to keep up with it, but I'm suddenly beginning to understand his addiction to coffee and why he's so tired all the time.

GUYS GUYS so we know from windblume that cyno and lisa see each other as siblings right. And that Lisa's basically raising Razor. Do you guys know what this means. Razor is Cyno's nephew.

Looking into all the men I like from different fandoms I’ve just realized the common denominator is men with: sarcasm, a fuck off attitude, shortest on the team, and they are secretly a sweet heart when given love.

Me: Wow amazing that they could get me to care so much about ineffable bureaucracy is such a short time. So cute they bonded over music.

*realizes one of my fav headcanons for Gereng is that they bonded and fell in love through sharing music*

been on my knees, ripping my hair out, sobbing, screaming, crying, throwing up ever since I watched Contrapoint's video on Twilight and was introduced to the concept of limerence.

I'm reading Diana Wynne Jones' Reflections on the the Magic of Writing and like. immediately she hits me with an anecdote of watching children play pretend outside her window, of little girls pretending to be queens and screaming at bushes and I'm just. I was a little girl doing the same thing, running around with a book on caring for dragons and pretending I saw dragons in trees and climbing rocks and running from enemies. Things like that just hit me and i'm always so charmed by myself, not in a narcissistic way but in a way that makes loving myself easier because the person I was was really so wonderful and that person has worked hard to become what they are now. and thats me!

She also says something thats kinda changed how I've been thinking about how to write. She says,

"My feeling is that children get the most from books which work along the same lines as they do - in other words, by Let's Pretend...Notice, for instance, that the children in the woods are very wisely not pretending too many things at once. They say 'Pretend we're all queens,' or 'Pretend we're explorers,' and part of the point of what follows is to find out what this entails. In the same way, I find it works best to suppose just one thing; Pretend you are a ghost, or Pretend your chemistry set works magic, or Pretend this dog is the Dog Star. Then I go on to explore the implications of this supposition. Quite often, I am totally surprised by the result." (pg 3-4)

I find with my writing what gets me hung up is I try to do too many things. I try to figure out too much before I begin and it gets complicated and convoluted, when it could all be very simple. Just play pretend on a page.

I think its very wise and also that any aspiring writer should read this book. I like DWJ a lot.
