those people… they like blood, y’know? Canadian trans woman and horror fiction writer

I took a government sponsored entrepreneurship seminar last week (I am considering doing a capitalism) and it was really basic but really good. We heard from a bunch of smart people. My takeaway: a whole bunch of this is psychological, and if you don’t care deeply about your business you will fail.

I’m a transfem buddhist heretic nun steeped in seaside industrial port city gloom. The kind of dame who is obviously autistic in a way that you know will break your heart, writing nasty stories to exorcise intrusive thoughts and writhing in the cosmic horror of having a living body.

my most controversial language learning opinion is probably that RTK (Remembering the Kanji by James Heisig) is a fun memory game and I’d recommend it even to people who AREN’T learning Japanese.

every piece of art you consume is a writing prompt. What do you think about what you saw/read/listened to? What moved you? What pissed you off? What delighted you or inspired you or made you think of that one time…? and then you just make something about it.

the thing about Thai horror is, I think, when your audience are 80% believers in actual ghosts and black magic in real life you don’t need to “elevate” the format or bring in other themes.

It is funny to me how preoccupied anglophones are by the lack of spacing between words in Thai. Every video or article about Thai makes a big deal about it but it is literally never a problem. Vowel frames + context make it obvious 99% of the time.

horror is (to me) first and foremost an awakening of the buried knowledge that you will die, possibly suddenly and painfully, and it will be out of your control, and final, and kind of meaningless like it has been for every animal that has died before you.

my roommate finally got into reading over the summer because she bought herself some niche romance and erotica books. She always wanted to read more, but she couldn’t focus on the books everyone recommended to her (including me). Read what you want!
