Hi! I wanted to tell you that your writing inspires me. I’ve been having a hard time getting along cause some shit has been going down, but your writing always gets me into a good headspace. I always feel better after reading a little (or a lot haha) of your writing, and it makes me feel better about writing myself (it’s felt like a chore lately) bc I want to create something that makes people happy too. It makes it feel worth it if I could make a person feel as good as you make me so thanks. <3

Wow!  Thank you so much anon!  That is just wonderful to hear.  I wish I could tell you I was writing fic now, but unfortunately I’m writing a report for work instead.

I’m thrilled to hear that my writing has helped you in any way.  It cheers me up too, smashing these dorks’ faces together (at least when they cooperate).  I’m so pleased to hear that their stories bring you happiness and especially that it encourages you to write as well.

Thank you so much for letting me know.  It’s quite a nice break from the rather difficult task I’m working on and makes me look forward to getting some fic time in this weekend 😉

I do remain terrified we’re getting closer and closer every time I re-read it.

It does seem like that crisis moment that seemed to spur the writing on the book just keeps cropping up.  I remember hating my ATM card for months after reading it because it gave me such fear that the systems I’d taken for granted could just be taken, and everything electronic seemed so vulnerable.

• hospitals at midnight
• warehouses that smell like dust
• lighthouses with lights that don’t work anymore
• empty parking lots
• ponds and lakes in suburban neighborhoods
• rooftops in the early morning
• inside a dark cabinet

  • playgrounds at night
  • rest stops on highways
  • deep in the mountains
  • early in the morning wherever it’s just snowed
  • trails by the highway just out of earshot of traffic
  • schools during breaks
  • those little beaches right next to ferry docks
  • bowling alleys
  • unfamiliar mcdonalds on long roadtrips
  • your friends living room once everybody but you is asleep
  • laundromats at midnight

what the fuck

  • galeries in art museums that are empty except for you 
  • the lighting section of home depot
  • stairwells

•hospital waiting rooms

•airports from midnight to 7am

• bathrooms in small concert venues

I just got the weirdest feeling I swear

Okay then, not just me.

Highway rest stops. Anywhere. Of any sort.
