A man emptied between five and eight rounds at a Secret Service magnetometer outside the Hilton ballroom Saturday night. One agent's vest stopped a bullet. The shooter survived. https://twp.ai/9OUc7l #trans #queer #lgbtqia #news #writing #LGBTQ #fediverse #books #newsletter

Saturday's gunfire at the Washington Hilton arrived forty-five years almost to the season after John Hinckley shot Reagan on the same goddamn pavement. Read that twice — because the regime's people already are. https://twp.ai/9OUc7m #trans #queer #lgbtqia #news #writing #LGBTQ #fediverse

I bought two different books on writing poetry, with prompts to get you started. Unfortunately, one of the books while encouraging you to "write deeply" the author also at many times criticises all the ways you can fall into "trite" and/or "workshop standard" poetry and how absolutely awful it is - as a way to try to convince you why it needs to be deep. Almost setting up rules to follow and expectations for qualities, or you'll inevitably be an unworthy poet (my interpretation of the introduction.) What a way to discourage people from even trying. Write that trite poem and play around with it, go to that poetry or writing workshop, enjoy the community. Express yourself. And yeah unfortunately that book is going to go straight into the next donation pile. I'll see what the other one brings for ideas. #writing #poetry #opinions #currentlyReading

@karpour@mstdn.social Wait what? Seems to me is required, at least. (So is a doctype declaration.) https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/syntax.html#writing Of course browsers probably have to muddle through anyway, because on the whole, very few write properly fully standard-conformant HTML. 🙂

#ScribesAndMakers 4/24. Our next featured creator has a "love/hate affair with common tropes." What's your relationship with tropes? We're just good friends. Don't listen to gossip. I have no problem with them in general, tropes make the reader comfortable and can be a shorthand around long explanations. But it's also nice to liven things up by breaking tropes. The writers of Buffy (Marti Noxon et al) loved doing this. #writing #writingCommunity

#WritersCoffeeClub 4/24. Share a silly mistake you've made while writing. Is silly the right word? Whatever. Most recently I had a "him" when I needed a "her" - it was a critically important distinction, and I didn't even notice until I was listening to the audiobook files. The mistake was due to a character that was no longer a "he" (it's complicated). Many of the characters knew about the change but *not* the one who said that line who said what they could see - but I got it wrong because I knew. #writing #writingCommunity

While reading Murakami’s “The City and its Uncertain Walls” I came across a weird symbol near the spine on page 38. Part of me knows it’s a print artifact, but another hopes it’s more: a mystery; a gateway; a sign. Yeah, that’s how deeply I read. #Writing #WritingCommunity #Reading
