how did you get into the publishing industry? i love to read so this seems like an interesting field but i studied art history, not literature or writing

I studied publishing studies first, but it genuinely (unfortunately) has a lot to do with networking. I got to know people through the course (and other courses I've studied such as creative writing and also my masters in literature), through interning via my uni, but also through the book community on instagram! I'm currently freelancing as a book editor and proof reader, and if you're interested in gaining some experience in that too I'm sure you could find people who'd love to let you edit/beta read their stuff so that you could gain more experience for when you reach out to publishers. The more experience the better, but it's also good to know people in the field if you have ways to do that. But also! I feel like your knowledge in art history could also be of use if you find more artsy publishers, possibly smaller ones. Good luck!

Random Innerworld Conversations

*while in church*

Charlie: Why are we here? Neither of us are Catholic. I don’t even believe in God.

Georgie: Ain’t you the Devil’s daughter?

Charlie: Yeah, so what?

Georgie: How’re you gonna say God ain’t real when He’s your grandad?

Charlie: Spite.

Georgie: You know what? Fair enough.

in terms of tv production decisions that turned out to be terrible, the west wing choosing to use the same upbeat score over the end credits of EVERY EPISODE no matter what story beat it ended on has got to be up there as one of the worst 😂

just finished da2. I'm actually speechless. the ending hurt, it was heartbreaking in the best way (also bonus points for the dai tease). at the same time, it really felt like hawks' story isn't over. like there are still plenty of tales to tell about them. I genuinely want more of them and of their friends/lovers.

i adore this story. all the companions, the side characters... the game certainly has its flaws, many of which could be blamed on the extremely short time it spent in the oven, but MAN was it not one of the best written narrative games I got to play so far

big al is literally that “i’m a bad bitch you can’t kill me” meme and i think that’s what every geriatric mercenary needs to aspire to

Yeah I've just realised it's been months since I posted or reblogged or replied to anything on here, so. Yeah. Obligatory announcement that I am still alive and well. My mind got wiped midway through exam season at the end of january and since they then I've been vibing in a stress free world where I am not worried about anything or doing anything

oh god scratch what have you done?!?!? :0

An excerpt from something that's been in my drafts for far too long now

Luffy & Sabo, pre-canon, Sabo still has amnesia but Koala dragged him to spend a day on Dawn Island and just so happened to time it right after Ace left, and he ended up spending the day with Luffy

Sabo gave in to the impulse, leaning forward to press a kiss against Luffy’s forehead. 

The kid looked up at him, eyes wide and only just starting to fill up with tears. The cry that escaped his throat sounded almost painful, raw and violent, and he lunged forwards, hands fisting in Sabo’s coat as his face pressed against his cravat. 

“I miss Sabo,” he sobbed into Sabo’s chest. 

Sabo gingerly wrapped his arms around the kid. 

“...I’m sorry I’m not the person you want me to be,” he said. 

They stayed like that for a while. Sabo kept rubbing Luffy’s back in what he hoped to be a soothing motion, allowing the kid to let it all out. 

In the end, Luffy was the one to pull away, straightening up as he wiped at his eyes with wrist. 

Sabo gently pulled his arm down, grabbing a handkerchief to use instead. 

He carefully cleaned up Luffy’s face, letting him use the handkerchief to blow his nose once done. Sabo intended to leave the fabric with Luffy, anyway, so it would be fine. 

Once Luffy was all cleaned up, the time has come to say goodbye.

when you read a fic that gives you a hyper-specific whump scenario that you know would either A.) take forever to find in another story or B.) hasn't been written at all so the obvious conclusion is that you have to write it yourself

dealing with assigned reading like

[extralively]

I was just rewatching season 2 again. Young satoru was.... simply put a jerk! Made me go back and re-read the first chapters, again! I wonder how teenage Satoru would react now seeing his Adult self is a Yura addict!!!!

funny you should say this now because I finally got volume 8 and 9 of the manga (the flashback arc) so I'll be rereading those soon bwahaha

But yes, teenage Satoru would probably be baffled over how his adult self is absolutely head over heels with Yura! He probably would have a hard time wrapping his head around it at first, because that was his 'I don't want to be with anyone no matter what my family says' phase of his teenage years, and also because it's Wakatsuki of all people.

...But also, it really wouldn't take long for him to come to terms with it because it's Yura. I imagine his train of thought would be something like: 'ok she's pretty, I guess. ok she's fun to have around. ok I guess if I had to pick someone...'

Basically, he would be very surprised at first, but would very quickly warm up to the idea lol

(also I can just picture him starting to imagine what kind of things ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) he and Yura get up to in the future and blushing furiously... while enjoying the thought a little too much)
