"If my book is not perfect then-"

Then what? People will actually discuss it? fill your plotholes with fanfiction and headcanons?

People dont care about perfection. perfection is boring. if your story is perfect people will forget about it. its how we are wired. we remember the strange, the weird and all things left open.

Perfection isnt the goal, interesting is

now i'm inspired guys. sapphic jas/georgia fic with this positive vibe incoming for pride <3

sometimes i wish i was a teenage girl growing up in leeds, had a violent cat named angus and went to an all-girls school (I’ve been reading too much louise rennison books)

[pearlofthewoods]

This book series was one of my absolute favourites as a child. It's witty, it's funny, it does such a great job of getting into the minds of teenage girls, but GOD it's lesbophobic. And I never even really noticed it until I reread the series as an adult.

Because as someone who grew up in England in the early 2000s, these books are very very much a product of their time. Not an excuse, but an observation.

In my primary school growing up, 'gay' and 'lezzer' were still thrown around as insults daily by kids who probably didn't really even know what those words meant.

And now that I'm older and I understand the history of homophobia in England, you can feel it in these books.

You can feel the lingering effects of Section 28, a law that was still in place until 2003. You can feel the homophobia and lesbophobia it allowed to flourish in schools and across the UK.

The first Angus Thongs book was published in 1999. And unfortunately, you can tell.

I still love Louise Rennison and these books. I really do.

But I hope that the 'Georgia Nicholson' of the next generation will have far better attitudes towards lesbians and lesbian representation.

Anyways... Georgia, girl.

Do you have something you wanna tell us? cause you sure think about lesbians a whole lot....

*hears good luck babe playing quietly in the background*

For my UK sapphics, would anyone like a sapphic!Georgia Nicholson realisation fix-it fic for pride this year?

Jas/Georgia real?

You know, for a book that doesn’t actually feature a single lesbian character, “Angus, Thongs, and Full Frontal Snogging” sure mentions the word lesbian a lot. 22 times, in fact. And it’s not a very long book.
