#a book
so, i’m writing a book.
I’ve been hesitant to share anything about it, really, because it’ll make it a little too real, you know? Also I know y’all are here for fic. But! I’ve been working my butt off on it, and I figured if anyone would be interested, it’d be people already familiar with my writing. I’ve made a Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest, and they can all be found at my Linktree! Three whole links, but it’s a start.
Some of y'all are familiar with actor!Marcus, so if you liked him, you might be interested in the (even more) expanded, more dramatic version, now complete with a fully-formed plus size lead female character with deeper examinations of fatphobia in the entertainment industry (and everywhere), ableism, and PR relationships. So! If that sounds interesting, come follow me. If not, no big. I’ll still be around here. <3
And I made a little moodboard.
there’s no such thing as a stupid reason not to kill yourself.
your school sells cookies on thursdays? your favorite band is coming out with a new album? you’re still saving up for that tattoo? there’s still five sodas in your fridge and it’d be a shame to let them go to waste? you want to see the season finale of that show you love? keep living.
your reasons don’t have to be big, if they mean anything to you then they’re good reasons.
Yes! Just make something to look forward to
Okay but this is honestly true.
One of the closest times I came to committing suicide was when I was home alone for the weekend a few years ago. The reason I didn’t?
No one else was there to feed the cat until Monday.
That’s it. That’s all that saved me.
See, this is such good advice, because it can put you in the frame of mind that you need to be in to combat depression. Even things that seem little, like, “My plant will die if I don’t water it,” or “I’m the only one that takes out the trash, anyways” are examples of how you’re needed and valuable, even appreciated.
There are people out there that need you and love you. Stay alive friend, because it is so worth it.
This is so relevant. When I wanted to just melt away fairly recently, the thing that kept me going? Knowing that the book I have been waiting to read had arrived and I look forward to finishing it.
