The art of discomfort | Leigh Bardugo | TEDxUCDavis YouTube video by TEDx Talks

I really enjoyed this talk by Leigh Bardugo on creativity and discomfort. www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCtb...

Omg!! Yaaaaay! It's such a cracking book, I'm SO glad more people are finding it!

Wow, thank you so much! :)

HI!!!! I just arrived and I am so lost!!!!

Well it's working!

I read Kick at the Darkness by Suleikha Snyder. It's a zombie apocalypse novella, yet so emotionally intense, and the central couple has such history and a complex romantic journey, and the HEA is so fulfilling despite the bleak world... HOW?! I love reading skillful romance. This genre is hard.

(Not you, Doja Cat. Never you.)

I've been watching too many video essays on YouTube (at least my social media addiction is educational! etc) & one of them mentioned this concept about the degradation of a symbol's meaning, e.g. cow becomes beef burger becomes burger-flavoured doritos? Anyway this 80s pop revival feels like that.

it's me! i'm one!

do me a favor and repost/share this? 🙏🏿 just need 6 more souls who might be into werewolf smut with middle-aged sluts. 😌

I get asked this question all the time by friends and acquaintances and yes, this is real...I have no idea how many "pages" my books are. 😅

Suleikha!! THANK you I am very excited to read!

hahaha thank you friend.

I respect this highly.

Thank you Ann! I am such a big fan of your books by the way.

Thank you so much! This is very helpful. I am learning.

I haven't! Checking it out, thank you.

Ummm, YES! This is giving me cozy gothic. I am excited.

ahhh thank you!

Thank you so much! :D

Hi!!

books please!

I can, but I'm lazy.

I am DESPERATELY WAITING for a Psy-Changeling histrom series. Like, surely. Surely that's where we are heading.

Oh! Let's start with the fact that I was using the Discover feed instead of the Following feed. That helps. The desert island effect is fading!

I feel like I'm on a desert island writing messages in the sand here but please, if anyone sees this, tell me how to search for people on this app because I have found like 2% of the folks I used to follow on the App That Shall Not Be Named and I am struggling.

I also thought superhero romance was going to be the Next Big Thing, which was 50% my personal desire and 50% market analysis. That didn't happen because the MCU crapped itself, a la GOT. However, again, time has passed. Elizabeth Stephens and Mariana Zapata wrote excellent examples. I need more.

I thought apocalyptic romance would blow up right after the pandemic but in hindsight, the feelings were a little too fresh. Now we are five years out and the angst is ready to bubble to the surface. I for one am devouring this stuff and searching for more.

After the End: A Dystopian Romance Collection Eight original stories exploring love after the end of the world. After The End, we'll still have HEAs.

On today's list of things I can't wait to read, a group of the genre's most innovative authors is releasing a post-apocalyptic romance collab
