my goal with the first line of nightshift has always been to make people instantly have questions about what's going on. why win's in his car, why he's waiting for the time on the clock to change, and why he feels the way he does. i hope it achieves that!

*peers around the corner* having fun with soft world building, writing about the relationship between the coworkers in my haunted convenience store wip (especially julian and win), and the fact that one of my characters is an empty suit of armor who likes slushies...that's fun!!!
alright, i started writing a list to remind me of what i love about my wip and i wanna spread some joy so #WritingCommmunity what's a list of things you love about your wip? silly, deep, whatever. what do you love about it with your whole damn heart?

also while it's terrifying to do...i'm currently fully rethinking one of wip's and it's exciting and fun to have a blank slate in front of me again and start from scratch with that one

Had to explain to my mother that the guy panhandling outside the hiring grocery store probably doesn't have a home address or a vehicle and that's why he can't get a job there, and she was STUNNED to know those things are requirements.

i am begging *begging* people to understand that housing for all would do more to combat domestic violence than the police currently do.
Can't break up with your abuser because you can't afford rent on your own—can't move in with mom or grandma because section 8 won't allow it—can't stand up to your slumlord for fear of getting evicted or "reported to CPS"—any feminism worth the name should prioritize housing.

i wouldn't go so far as to say the child welfare system in america is purposefully overburdened, underfunded, and left to languish while we spend billions on buying missiles to kill children in other countries but...actually, yeah, i would go so far as to say that.

not a single thing we do as a country comes from a place of caring about children, not within our borders and not outside of them. i know that much is true. individual people caring will only get us so far, and we reached that limit a long time ago.
