#just 2026 things <3

[renegadefolkhero]

1. i evidently published more books than i finished reading last year :/ which is a pretty terrible look sorry everyone

2. i did a horrible job keeping track of what i read on storygraph and now i dont get a nice 2025 wrapped infograph so maybe i'll learn my lesson this time. the most enjoyable book i read was the tainted cup by robert jackson bennett which is fantasy nero wolfe basically.

3. whenever i read a blurb with so and so's "adult epic fantasy debut" i immediately stop, ponder did this person used to write ya?, and then assume they did and scroll. is that wrong? AITAH? just kidding i don't care.

4. i can't enjoy dark erotica because whenever they do something unhinged i'm like no they should have done this depraved thing you're doing it WRONG and then i'm like ffs do i have to write everything and--no. please, no. i just want to vibe with an author who knows when to be soft and when to give someone a urine enema. and sadly nobody threads the needle quite like me. i may have to start reading fanfic again? undecided.

5. tumblog on dw just means i was gonna pop off on tumblr and instead i'll pop off here
