Honestly, using spacehey and dreamwidth has been so delightful. I'm a bit stuck with neocities rn- I want to code some images to make a sfx when clicked, but I am so lost that I didn't even understand the advice I was given. But overall it's been so enjoyable to just create posts for myself without an expectation of a reply or conversation.
Otherwise I've been chilling. I don't quite have it in me to start applying to jobs again- Rejection Hurts in a way that I don't think you can understand unless you've actively applied for jobs and not been able to get one for over four months. But I'm working on at least reclaiming my creative side instead of just sitting and watching my life pass by. I don't want to spend my life without living it. I may not do as much as I want to, but I want to do all I can.
Anyway-
Top five books you've ever read?
Okay in NO order:
Maniac Magee by Jerry Spinelli- Captures being a child very well, and has an engaging plot
Out of my mind by Sharon Draper- It defies tropes in some ways that absolutely shook me as a child
Savvy by Ingrid Law- Fun, character driven story that feels like a daydream made realistic
All Systems Red by Martha Wells-Dynamic world that questions the human condition in both the text, and through meta analysis.
Meddling Kids by Edgar Cantero-I was on the edge of my seat for a lot of this book, the characters fascinated me and their interactions felt organic and heartfelt.
Honorable mention to Dog Sees God by Bert V Royal. If it wasn't a play, it would be my favorite book. The passion in the little red bic lighter monologue is my ultimate favorite. I've never seen it acted out, but my theater teacher had a copy of it in her scripts box that I used for a few projects.
What's your favorite food?
Tuna casserole! But I think that might change soon- I've been having a lot of new foods since I moved.
Mayonnaise or mustard?
Kewpie Mayonnaise >u<
How did you get into writing fanfiction?
No clue! I think the low bar for entry on quotev and reading a lot of fics for hetalia (I was 12) made me think I could do it. And I could! I write about way more complex things now than back then, but I also write less, so...
How many unread emails do you have right now?
18! I love sorting emails and maintaining my inbox :)
What makes you click out of a fanfic instantly?
Not knowing how to use the enter key. I can have some campy fun with stuff like 'greenette' and ooc writing, but I Cannot read a fic that is a solid block.
