About writing that's very on-the-nose and trying to hit you over the head with emotions/symbolism: it's like someone telling a joke and saying "You get it? You get it? It's funny because--" It feels condescending, like you don't trust the audience to get the message otherwise.

HOWEVER, sometimes it's necessary because your audience really is stubborn and biased and likely to resist getting your message otherwise, esp if you're writing about social issues not agreed upon by the majority

I feel like I write first drafts of my novels the way I used to write plays--with a lot of grand physical and verbal gestures to convey what's going on to an audience sitting at a distance. Then I go back in and try to make it more real and subtle and intimate.

Shoutout to having an Asian mom. Turns out it's easy to get over two people getting in a gunfight in your workplace when your own mother has made you feel more visceral fear 😭😭😭

I was just fine after running from gunshots yesterday, then today I choked on my own spit while watching TV. Embarrassed is putting it lightly.

I used to be mad when I got asked this as a kid cus I was like "i couldn't be here if I was from N Korea, duh." Then Kpop blew up and S korea became the default assumption. Then in college there were actual N Korean refugee students, so the question looped back around to relevant

In our campaign, the sorcerer's wild magic summoned a unicorn--except our warlock is the child of a unicorn. So her dad showed up.
Wild magic is so funny bc your players can be in the middle of a terrifying battle with a magically mutated monstrosity and then all the monks teeth fall out and no one can stop laughing

On Stephen King's writing advice of "kill your darlings," I do think the "darlings" often need to go--but it's less about devaluing their worth, more like allowing their brief existence to buoy you up and assure you that you have the drive to make better and more.

...or in the alleged words of Caterina Sforza at the forces holding her children hostage, "I HAVE THE INSTRUMENT TO BEAR MORE!"

Just to let y'all know--when you buy one of my books or join the $1 tier on my Patreon, I see the username in my email or the number pop up in my bank account and I am truly, unironically, endlessly grateful. However happy you think it could possibly make me, it's more than that.
