My Cartoon For This Week’s @guardian Books

Title: How to focus on writing your book   There follow eleven tiny images telling a story. The captions read:  Turn your devices off (a writer with a phone and laptop. The screens are dark). Put them in a drawer.  Lock the drawer. Throw away the key.  Leave the house.  Do not look back. Keep to backroads and hedgerows.  Feel your old life slip away. (the writer has shed his clothes) Sleep by day.  Forage in the evening.  Write by the light of the moon  When you have a passable first draft, commit a minor crime and use your phone call to contact your agent. (the naked writer is in a prison holding a phone while an unamused police officer looks on).

Our fandom forbearers did NOT suffer through Anne Rice, strikethrough, and other bullshit for fucking ACOTAR and Harry Potter fans to fucking ruin it for all of us by selling fanfiction. I am not losing novel length yaoi epics because some of you don't know how to act in fannish spaces and yes I do blame the booktokification of fanfic but I also blame those of you that treat fandom like content to consume and not a community to engage with.

I want you to remember:

The fascists hate you too and they just will pretend otherwise until after they've killed the rest of us, before they turn on you.

"Capitalism Allows You To Follow Your Dreams. Socialism Forces You To Give Up Your Dreams."

"Capitalism allows you to follow your dreams. Socialism forces you to give up your dreams."

Yeah. Keep telling yourself that.
