I will never be normal about Naomi Li. She had a hand in torturing a man who begged her for help, and when he showed up wanting revenge, she was fully prepared to meet it head on. She could have made excuses, or justified herself as just following orders, but no. She offered herself up as bait and she apologized before she would have been killed. She knows what she did wrong and didn't run from it. Even after she escapes and runs into Tanaka again, she is fully prepared to die. She never begs for her life. She's clearly scared to die but she wants to make up for what she did. She's compassionate but not naive, and she takes responsibility for her own actions. God, I love this series and it's takes on compassion and morality.

Goodbye, September!

Being Barnes & Noble’s SFF Book of the Month meant getting to sign piles of books wherever I went, having LONG LIVE EVIL in windows, seeing cool displays and my fabulous poster, having a wonderful event with the lovely Rachel Gillig, seeing other books on my Evil Table - it was especially thrilling when I saw books that were inspirations for LONG LIVE EVIL (shouted out in my acknowledgments!) like Scott Lynch’s Lies of Locke Lamora, anything Leigh Bardugo, Spinning Silver and THE PRINCESS BRIDE ON MY TABLE DO YOU SEE IT.

I’m mostly a text girl on my tumblr, but it was a wonderful time. Overwhelming (I was a slug with the amnesia for a week there) but wonderful. I was really sure, after cancer and losing many professional friends and contacts and after people in publishing TOLD me I was done, that I was done. I am so grateful to see Evil being embraced, to my publisher and my readers for giving me a chance. Publishing is a strange game, and it’s early days yet. This could all fall through. Sometimes you go into strange worlds for one brief adventure and sometimes they become home. But I want to be very joyful, even if just for a moment.

(Also yes I stole a book trolley and ran around B&N Union Square. That’s not important at this time.)

LONG LIVE EVIL has been on US bestseller lists for 4 weeks.

Farewell, September. Farewell, Evil Tables. You were a hell of a birthday month. I’ll miss you. I’m happy you happened.

...Lord Jesus, I just realized.

In Book 1, when El says "I should have blown the bloody doors off in my freshman year, and shown everyone back then"... if she'd done that, she would be flat out dead.

If El had earnestly wanted to be in an Enclave, if she'd shown off her powers her first year at school, Ophelia would have found her. She'd have found out about El several years younger, less powerful, locked up in the school. Before the big Enclave war started kicking off in the outside world to distract everyone. And Gwen would have been alone at the commune with no idea they were in danger.

Can you imagine what that woman would have done?

El would have been toast. She'd have been a sitting duck. If she had ever tried to pursue power and fame, it would have killed her.

Can we discuss the QUALITY LIs in this book? It's just started, and I already am like ... can't I just be poly?

(I went ahead to chapter 2, so I've met Naomi. 😍)

These are going to be some difficult choices!

Men & Other Things

Watching best man holiday

And I’m thinking life’s too short to act like I don’t want what I want. But this is the courage that only comes when alone in my room with a good film… How can I get that courage outside with me…?

I want that man God. What can I do?

I realise now Im probably battling social anxiety. Sometimes I just want to leave and go home in the middle of church - and I make it all the way outside when I thought I was going to the toilet. And then I just stand there staring at the winter evening thinking why can’t I go now? Run away home now and try again next week Sunday instead? Because I’ll do the same thing every week until I am lost. I must stay and stick it through.

Last week my own shadow actually struck fear in me because I thought it was another person entering the same space as me. What am I scared of?

Last week also I turned to my left as I sat down and a male friend was next to me I’d made just recently. I was so spooked and couldn’t shake off the feeling. I hope he couldn’t tell. I hope he left straight after the service because he had important things to do and not because I dashed out the room as soon as they said hold your neighbour’s hand (for unrelated reasons)

I was brave for some of this Sunday but not enough. Next time.

Dear God, please say there’ll be a next time.
