ONE. MORE. SLEEP. 🙌😆
#FictionFest officially starts TOMORROW! We have 5 live events scheduled for the first day, featuring romance, mystery, SF, literary fiction, & a panel discussion on "the inspiration behind the book". You can watch them all for FREE via our YouTube channel! FictionFest.ca 💙📚
I write a book based on my perspective and experience; you interpret it based on yours
You might get something incredible out of it I never thought of! You also might find something wildly problematic I didn't intend, but absolutely put in there anyway out of ignorance!
well THIS snuck up on me but it will be GREAT
sign up for some great panels and readings!!!
Meaning is created on BOTH sides of a text - author encoding it and reader interpreting - and shifts across time, context, perspectives
To (approx) quote Ricoeur, it's by being reinterpreted in new contexts, not by repeating significations fixed forever, that any work stays alive to the imagination
Ongoing rosesplosion btw!
WELL that does not look like very much goddamn progress but at least I know I REALLY WAS gardening for 2h because
Authorial intention has SOME bearing on the question of "what this book says" but it is so very far from all there is to it!
106K, aaaaaaaaa, which makes 10K in a week
Something like 20k to go...which means if I keep up this pace maybe I can boot it to the end in 2 more weeks???
Prob smarter to pace myself but apparently I am incapable of doing anything else while work on this fucker remains 🫠 so
Look it's my MA being relevant to my career 😱😱😱
watching twilight and I keep making myself laugh imagining if it was just that bitch alucard or any other vampire instead of Edward
