This is based on the assumption that if you take the huge leap, then somehow a sort of divine justice will grant you success and recognition. Doesn't happen. The market won't magically recognize your worth if you starve yourself. If anything you'll just make yourself more vulnerable.

Just saw the WORST advice to give on a general level, which is to just quit your day job, willy-nilly, to become a writer. The suggestion was to let yourself go feral/get backed into a corner and figure it out. And oh my god,can we just KILL the idea that one has to struggle/starve to make art? No.

Dear bluesky, can I interest you in some magical realism today? Consultancy Blues is my latest collection. It is, by any definition, a harsh book about sad, lonely people; a love letter to Abe Kobo; and a fever dream into the horrors of daily office routine. It's available on Kindle and Kobo

I don’t go a day without seeing the same debate over Twitter or Discord. Authors forced to swallow the usual form rejections over and over until desperation sets in. “Are my stories even being read?”.

Yes, this one is spicy, and yes, no editor was hurt in the process musesupport.substack.com/p/the-case-a...?

I approve the notion to move this to nonfiction

Die Mietze lacht.@eteepeteetee.bsky.social

Why is this part of the spec lit feed, a feed for the speculative literature world, oh my god...! 😭 It definitively should be part of the nonfiction.

Hey, wouldn't it be cool to talk to animals? Actually no, according to BG3 developers. Each animal I talk with is an asshole and I want to kill them. I'll soon write a Medium article on "How Baldur Gate turned me into an hypercarnivore"

"I masturbated so hard that they had to reconstruct my dick with a skin graft from the underside of my left arm. Many valuable lessons were learned"

“Please explain this gap in your résumé.” “I travelled on horseback with a faerie princess to meet her parents in the Land of Eternal Youth. It was just dinner and drinks, but when I returned, ten years had passed.”

When we moved into this new place there were a pair of angel's wings propped up in the corner of one room. They oozed white liquor, the smell fairly reminiscent of vanilla and garlic. The agency that rented us the house knew nothing about them. "How you dispose your waste is up to you," they said.

Amazing entry to the narrative universe "Roma delenda est"

"Are you a boy or a girl?" You bolt awake in the mountains of Carthage. You are not online. It is 217 BC. You are the general Hannibal, and you have changed your mind. The future must not come to pass. Rome must burn.

You don't have to PASS or have SURGERY to be a woman. If your blade can slay the witch king, you're a woman

One of the last days to get short stories for 1.99! Check out Reality and Contagion on Amazon and tell me how it goes.

M@mwrites.bsky.social

I'm a bit early - but my short story collection is part of the Narratess Indie Sale. You can buy my book on amazon for just 1.99 - which is a total steal, because this price will get you 14 short stories of speculative fiction. Still not sure? Check en.mwrites.net to see how I write.
