Hello hello! I absolutely adore your writing, it just feels so complex and the dialogue is so perfect you don't understand, probably my favorite writer in tumblr ^^

Do you have any favorite books? I'm not really into reading but I want to write my own stories, and English isn't my first language so I always try to read but I don't really continue since most of them aren't really in my taste– but I'm willing to try anything you read or take inspiration from since I'll probably like it since I like your work so much :]

Sorry, hope that made sense, ty <3

So, I'd like to think that while my writing has a consistent *vibe* it also covers quite a few different genres and moods that could be what you are interested in. Let's go.

If you like a book rooted in complex, dysfunctional power dynamics try....Summer Sons by Lee Mandelo, The Last Tale of The Flower Bride by Roshani Chokski, The Invisible Life of Addie La Rue by V.E Schwab, Gone Girl or Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn, Deathless by Catherynne M Valente, If We Were Villains by M.L Rio, The Foxhole Court by Nora Sakovic, Dark Rise by C.S Pascat, Interview with a vampire by Anne Rice, These Violent Delights by Micah Nemerever.

(You can see that complex, dysfunctional power dynamics that are central to the story are basically my favourite thing haha. My absolute jam and butter! The dynamics themselves vary. You may root for some and watch others in delighted horror.)

If you like a great, not a romcom, enemies to lovers romantasy, try...Sorcery of Thorns by Margaret Rogerson, Girl, Serpent, Thorn by Melissa Bashardoust, The Folk of the Air trilogy by Holly Black.

For some fantasy horror vibes, try...Rolling in the Deep by Mira Grant (mermaids!), House of Hollow by Krystal Sutherland, The Hollow Places by T. Kingfisher.

If you want something cute and LGBTQ, try...The House on Cerulean Sea or In the Lives of Puppets by T.J Klune, One Last Stop by Casey McQuiston, Carry on by Rainbow Rowell, anything by F.T Lukens.

For short story collections that make me want to write...Things We Say in the Dark by Kirsty Logan, Salt Slow by Julia Armfield, Through The Woods by Emily Carrol or the multi-author anthology Hag.

And, let's be real, absolutely no one is following me for worldbuilding, but...

For worldbuilding that has stayed with me, try...The Wayward Children series (all stories semi-standalone) by Seanan McGuire, The Belles by Dhonielle Clayton, The Coldest Girl in Coldtown by Holly Black

I know I haven't done superheroes. I just...?? I liked Hench by Natalie Zina Walschotts, but honestly most of them just don't interest me. Sorry.

Where is my tall butch or gender fluid person who likes home cooked foods and cute snacks in their lunches. I just wanna cook for more people, especially someone who tells me their favorite foods, someone who i can blush at while they help in the kitchen, or just wants to try new recipes for fun because I made it.

I was all omg a drama up my alley but now its filled me with yearning. Yearning to be in the kitchen and yearning to cook for a lover. 😭 does anyone want to try a raspberry swiss roll i want to make or smores cookies or a denser cheesy goulash ?? I'm going to try some diabetic friendly snacks soon as well ?? Anyone 😭

ooooooo what’s poor kids supper club????

Thank you for the ask, lovely anon!

I don't really remember plotting out "poor kids supper club," so odds are I did it in October, during the fever dream that was writing the Promptening. I think I meant for it to be one of the Promptening chapters, but it grew legs and horns and I just set it to the side.

Here's what that doc file contains (still mostly point-form notes):

Muggle AU; basing this on the Canadian university system, as that’s the one I have experience with  Harry sees that Ron is struggling to afford tuition, rent and meals, even with a part-time job and needs-based bursaries, wants to help him out but knows Ron will turn down any direct attempt at assistance (he has before).  Potter parents died in a house fire (James from part of the house falling on him, Lily of smoke inhalation from getting Harry and getting outside) and, due to mismanagement, the Dursleys took the insurance payout for the house - Still mistreated Harry (because they're trash like that) But Harry has some money that his parents set aside for his education, a portion of the insurance payout from his parents’ deaths available to him, and the rest – as well as his modest inheritance – will become available to him once he turns twenty-five, as well as a full-ride scholarship (probably for ⚽), so he’s comfortable. Not absurdly wealthy, but he can afford to be generous. He’s frugal due to his years of starving with the Dursleys – he doesn’t ever want to be at someone else’s financial mercy again. He also knows what it’s like to be the poor, hungry one and not have anyone else to rely on, and he doesn’t want anyone else to feel that way. His godfather also left him a big, totally-not-haunted fixer-upper house when he passed away, so Harry has a place to host these get-togethers – a giant kitchen and huge dining room.  So Harry posts a few signs around campus, especially near the financial aid office, offering dinner to anyone, no questions asked. They just have to give him a couple hours notice, and if they let him know at least a day ahead of time, they can make food requests.  So he drags Ron and Hermione over as often as possible to feed them, and sometimes they’re joined by another person or three, and it becomes something of a supper club. Draco shows up at some point because it’s popular/because Potter/to mock the poor people, and Harry says “really?” and Malfoy answers “You said no questions!” To which Harry shrugs and says “as long as you behave yourself, you can stay.” Tom becomes a fixture, because while he has scholarship money coming out his ears and a part-time job (because he’s not super challenged by the material and has enough time for it), he’s also trying to run with the rich kids, so any extra money he has goes towards better clothes and accoutrements.  - Plus, if some idiot’s going to be altruistic enough to feed him for free, he’s going to take advantage of that It becomes popular enough that Harry institutes a pay-what-you-can-if-you-can policy (looking at you, Malfoy) Turns into a whole thing, where people help each other out academically and they all do homework together, a support group during midterms and finals and when someone’s having a rough day, they have games nights and go on outings together, and there are groups within the group. If people need a place to stay, they can apply to have one of the rooms in Harry’s fuck-off house for free (as long as they help keep it clean) Harry basically becomes low-key financial aid for his peers, and they think he’s the coolest, and he has no idea.

Yet another meandering, slice-of-life Flaky fic in the making (•ᴗ•,, )

(I just want them all to be warm and happy and eat together and probably cuddle-puddle together. My needs are simple.)

If anyone wants me to actually flesh this out and write it, feel free to include suggestions of what you'd like to see in it, too!

JOMP BPC - 6th August - Best Fictional Food

I've posted about this novel before. Last time I said this: Emma Jane Unsworth described this book as “The most visceral, satisfying, wildly indulgent thing I’ve read in years” - and she was right. I’ve spent most of my life being ridiculously well-behaved and responsible and in control of myself, so the wildness of the young female characters in Supper Club was thrilling to me, but also deeply unsettling. It’s a book about hunger and satisfaction, loneliness and friendship, rage and joy. Just writing about it makes me want to read it again.

So the book is about - amongst other things - young women having appetites, about eating for pleasure, eating messily, eating with abandon; about being wild; the opposite of controlled and careful and ladylike. Here's a quote taken from one of the supper clubs the characters organise: After the tuna we had a smaller course of spaghetti puttanesca - served in sundae bowls we'd found in the kitchen. The pasta was a little overcooked but the fiery anchovy sauce was delicious: finished with an extra drizzle of chilli oil, its red flecks spitting and popping from the pan. We'd eaten all the bread and so we cleaned the last of it with our fingers and hands, the heels of our wrists working the lips of the bowls. The fat and the tomatoes left a thin red tideline around our mouths, which we dabbed at with tissues.

[Image ID: A digital drawing of four characters from the waist up in a grid formation.

The character in the top left is a girl with long, dark brown hair covering her eye and ashy brown skin. Her eyes are black with white pupils and she has a prominent tooth gap. She’s wearing a coat with a furred hood and decorations that look like a ribcage. Her shirt is a turtleneck in two different shades of gold. Her hand is out, palm up, and she has a neutral expression. The background is light grey with a dark grey heart shape.

The character in the top right has short, black curly hair and tan skin. They have horns on top of their head and a set of goggles. One lens is black and the other is white. Their eyes are grey, and a set of fangs are protruding from their mouth. They are wearing a red and blue jacket with a green shirt, and their arms are prosthetics with the fists touching. They have a determined expression. The background is purple with a bluer purple triangle shape.

The character in the bottom left is a woman with her pointer finger up. She has tan skin, golden eyes, and a scar across her face. Her hair is red with strands of black, and she has black fox ears with cream fur. The top bit of her hair is in a bun, the rest of it falling to her chin. She is wearing a grey crop top jacket, red long sleeve shirt, and blue hair binder and choker. She has a playful expression.

The character on the bottom right is a chubby man signing, “I love you” in ASL. He has dark, shoulder length hair that curtains on one side. The hair has a streak of cream. His skin is a bit tan, and he has yellow-green eyes. He has two deerlike horns poking out from his head. He is wearing a blue shirt with a mandarin collar, a purple sweater vest, and a purple ribbon partially covered by his hand. He has a cracked purple mark on his face. He is smiling. End ID.]
