  • reading @hollyblack’s “tithe” in prep for #clarion. #
  • i enjoyed “tithe.” more romance than i usually go for, but tough & brittle. good writing. brilliant first sentence; presages the following. #
  • @mishellbaker man, i’ve been wanting to get in on this wotd business with you all, but i’ve been so. busy. with work. that’ll change soon 🙂 in reply to mishellbaker #

  • RT FOR TRUTH. @kellysue: I hate insurance companies. #
  • @mishellbaker Seven wolves reclined in the tall grass–rending, gulping–a charcoal annulus drawn on a verdant and vermilion tablet. #wotd in reply to mishellbaker #
  • @NicholasStenner yeah, that’s what i was going for. green grass, red blood. not the clearest sentence i’ve written, though. wonky structure. in reply to NicholasStenner #
