This picture isn't actually in greyscale... 📓 I have strong opinions about the content of Stephen King's writing, especially regarding the way he writes women, but he is undeniably a compelling master of the craft. 📓 I love writing, and I have been blessed that writing a sentence has always been as easy and natural to me as breathing. Because of this however, I often resent books that tell me how to do what I do (I even did a semester of creative writing at university and uh... only went to about 3 of the lectures). For my part I often find that the struggle isn't about the ideas or the turn of phrase, but about actually picking up the pen and getting those ideas out of my head in the right way. 📓 I'm wanting to learn to make that happen, and how to be better and to improve, and On Writing is actually helping with that so... its pretty good in my books then. . . . #onwriting #stephenking #wherebelesbians

This past week I got to go to the Love & Desire exhibition at the NGA and hang with some of my favourite art pieces, including my Queens Circe and Persephone, and the og Mad Girls Ophelia and The Lady of Shalott. I discovered new music and got so many compliments on my shoes 😊 I wish there was time for me to go again, but hopefully they should be back at home in the TATE by the time I head there in October. I have always loved these amazing, strong women and hope that one day I will be able to add to the fantastic literature around them! . . . #rolemodels #badassladies #art #paintings #preraphaelite #music #notebook #newshoes? #talkingabouthemsneaks #opheliac #ophelia #persephone #circe #ladyofshalott #femmefatales #myface

I was so excited to find out about this book; it has two of my favourite things - queers, and a nordic setting. Even better, Niviaq Korneliussen is going to be at the Sydney Writer's Festival, I have such a huge list of talks and panels I want to see, I'm already getting overwhelmed!! ❤ I've been sick with the flu for a whole week and while it's nice to have a solid rest I HAVE THINGS TO DO! Also is it just me or is being sick as an adult so much worse than as a kid? It's certainly waay more boring than I remember... . . . #crimson #niviaqkorneliussen #herebelesbians

I've never been particularly shy or subtle about my love of "Notes of A Crocodile" - Qiu Miaojin's other novel. It's one of those life-changing books that seems to be there right when you need it and speak the words your soul hasn't been able to articulate. I don't know if I'm quite prepared for another of those journeys just yet, but I know "Last Words From Montmartre" will be there for me when I am. . . . #lastwordsmontmartre #qiumiaojin #herebelesbians

My search for a book to finish reading continues so I turned to an old favourite genre 🎎 Theres something about asian literature - or at least those that Ive read. They all seem to have a surreal, lyrical feel to them that I find very relaxing and easily captured by. 🎎 I'm about halfway through Record of A Night Too Brief and I feel like every time I pick it up this book sweeps me along with it - I can barely keep pace!!! It's the picking it up again thats the issue... I can just feel it sitting there... looking at me... judging me... . . . #recordofanighttoobrief #hiromikawakami #bookoftokyo

A pile of gifted books - is there anything better? 📚 One of my many, many New Years Resolutions was to buy fewer books and instead borrow from the library. Its now March and I'm not sure how I'm going with this plan. I've still been buying plenty of books and apart from an extensive run-in with a pile of Stephen King books, haven't really borrowed anything either. I also have a list of ARCs backing up on my NetGalley... I just don't really feel like reading anything at the moment! But I want to!! 📚 There are so many books out and about to come out and I'm just not as excited about them as I was to start with. This time of year always seems to be a bit of a reading slump, so what gives???!! 📚 How do yall deal with slumps? Do you just keep going an try to ride it out or do you do something else for a while? . . . #arrivalofmissives #aliyawhiteley #underdogshortstories #highwaybodies #alisonevans #louisandlouise #juliecohen #wundersmith #jessicatownsend #someonelikeme #mrcarey #bookpile #arcs #loveozya #instabook #bookstagram #igreads
