imagine havin the BDE that E.M Forster had. Imagine writing a gay ass book when it was illegal, showing it to a bunch of your mates anyway, find out they think it's boring and gay and be like "nah. it gay. i like it." and changing virtually nothing about it as a result over the remaining decades of you life and when its turned into a film you have hugh fucking grant and rupert graves playing main characters

love and sourdough starters are much the same, in terms of chemical and physical properties, as well as cultural impact, to say nothing of the opportunities for poetic metaphor they both provide in abundance

I’ve done some Twitter threads on this topic, so thought it might be nice to do a Tumblr post too. One of my pet peeves is when people act like adult fantasy (or sci-fi for that matter) is just a straight white dude thing and that diversity only exists in young adult fantasy. That’s such a disservice to all the authors of marginalized identities currently writing adult fantasy!

Authors and books below the cut, including links to Goodreads. I’m not providing trigger warnings (if I make the post too long Tumblr starts freaking out about it), but you can use the search function on Goodreads reviews to find more specifics.

Dante’s Inferno is the best piece of classical poetry because it’s the most petty thing you will ever read. Half of Hell is mythological or historical figures and the other half is Dante’s enemies. So the whole thing is like “I am Medea, who slew her own child to spite her husband.” “And I am Francisco di Vincezzino Fabriccia, who gets very talented and handsome poets kicked out of Florence, but I’m very sorry for it now because I’m burning in Hell and I suck.”

For a book club activity, my friend and I made a list of desirable qualities we observed in the unhandsome heartthrob, Mr. Rochester. Still relevant today, 3 years later.
