My beautiful stack of mostly unread Book of the Month books that I can finally read because it’s non-required reading time 😍 I also posted links to all the books I read in school this year on the blog! Link in bio 📚
Well it was rough, but I made it through my mentorship year! Which means... I CAN READ WHATEVER I WANT 💁🏼‍♀️ So if that means I’m going to spend my valuable time setting up this Carrie Bradshaw shrine from @jooleeloren ’s illustrated essays, Literally Me, so be it. ⚪️⚪️⚪️ I made more of an effort this year to include some palate cleansers between the non-stop short stories. I ready more poetry, CNF, graphic novels, and just genuinely fun books than I ever had before and I think it made a huge difference in avoiding burnout (mostly). How do you avoid burnout? xx, Tab
“This interesting pen is a symbol of my love for you. This wooden floor is a symbol of my love for you. This year of loneliness is a symbol of my love for you. This concert tee is a symbol of my love for you.” @ameliagray AM/PM ✌🏻 More on Amelia Gray and flash fiction and #flashfloodapril on the blog. Link in bio!
“​Her swept, stripped crying was like an empty room, the boxy shadows on the walls, the ​unfaded parts against which beds and desks had pressed. Whoever had lived there, slept ​there, adjusted in front of the mirror there, was dead.” -Christine Schutt ▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️ This is writing that makes you laugh but also cry because someone wrote it and it wasn’t you.
“Still, there are times I am bewildered by each mile I have traveled, each meal I have eaten, each person I have known, each room in which I have slept. As ordinary as it all appears, there are times when it is beyond my imagination.” -Jhumpa Lahiri, Interpreter of Maladies ⭐️⭐️⭐️ My best friend and I tend to like opposite books (because she’s a plot person and I’m a characterization person so she thinks everything I like is boring) and yet she gifted me this book without knowing it was on my list. It’s like, the perfect blend of people and plot and she’s like, the perfect book bff. That is all. Thaaaanks @sarahhruizz 🖤
An accurate representation of my writing process as of late—holed up in a coffee shop for hours with huge salads, washi tape and cute post-its as my only motivation to organize my life, just a big colorful MESS. But I’m also working harder than I’ve ever worked before. Been planning for some big fun things to come! Anyway, @littleoneonthemoon inspired me to show back up and share some of my favorite bookish people. I haven’t shown enough love on here lately, so I’ll probably be stalking you soon 💛 Comment your favorite book accounts so I can stalk them too!!!

(guys, my tweets are kind of funny)
