Does anyone know or have any resources they found particularly helpful?
i will never get the people who are disappointed after reading tfota bc apparently it's lacking romance they thought would be there. like are u telling me “Kiss me, kiss me until I'm sick of it” doesn't make u giggle and kick your feet in the air? "You really do want me. And you hate it" does nothing for you? "Most of all, I hate you because I think of you. Often. It's disgusting, and I can't stop" isn't making you FERAL? and "If you're the sickness, I suppose you can't also be the cure" isn't all peak romance. AND DON'T GET ME STARTED ON THOSE DAMN LETTERS

This. Just all of it.
While we're on this, where has this idea that Ron Weasley is unintelligent coming from? I'm seeing it a lot even when people are discussing canon. He might not be academically inclined, like everyone's favorite witch, but he's strategically quite clever.
I lied. Put your clothes back on.
We are going to talk about how Harry James Potter is so criminally underrated in his own fandom, how people completely ignore his trauma and his suffering and act like he is a selfish person with anger issues even though he is just a boy who went through too much too young.
We are going to talk about the infamous sentence 'But xy had it so much worse' even though it‘s Harry who we see growing up in a literal cupboard, who got raised up as a pig for slaughter, who always put everyone else above himself, who could have turned out to be the villain but instead he chose love.
A new version of this Fantasy Library print!
Just about to sell out of the original run so I took the opportunity to amend a couple of things and add a bit more colour, I’ll be printing this with a few different background colours to choose from.
The book titles read:
1. A Massive, Brilliant Final Instalment of a Series You Didn’t Think Would Ever Be Concluded
2. Everyone You Recommend This To Will Love It As Much As You
3. A Clear & Concise Summary Of All Human History
4. A Novel You Once Loved But Have Since Forgotten
5. Still As Good As When You Read It As a Teenager (If Not Better)
6. A Perfect Short Story
7. A New, Canonical Entry In Your Favourite Series, Fixing The Problems In The Original Ending
8. A Brief Epilogue Telling You What Happened When Your Favourite Characters Grew Up
9. The Book You’ll Write If You Ever Have Time
This new version will be up on my shop by the middle of December 2022, in the meantime there are a few of the old one left and lots of other book and ttrpg themed prints!

I love Frostbite Studios so much. STUNNING artwork.

I'm writing a character who thinks her partner is cheating. I'm trying to come up with the list of reasons one would think their partner is cheating.
The usual suspects outside of straight up seeing them out with another person or messages or full-on evidence, kind of eludes me.
Some people I know say their partners acted completely differently (colder, crueler, etc.). Some say they were extra nice. I understand it might be different across the board, but I just want some real-world ideas behind this.
I apologize if this upsets anyone, but how did you/your friend/family, etc. KNOW? What tipped you/them off?
This is so painfully accurate.
First day working in a bookstore, I had a gentleman come to the desk:
"Do you have any books on kidnapping?" My colleague and I both freeze. "Because my wife is really into it."
I look at him and without thinking go, "I hope you don't mean a how-to guide!"
He laughs and says, "No no! Like, books about kidnapping."
Visible relief on mine and my colleague's faces. After a while, he starts talking about his wife watching a show on Netflix - something to do with a serial killer who kidnaps people and traps them.
"In a bookstore basement? Oh yeah, I know just the series! Follow me, sir!"
He bought the entire You series by Caroline Kepnes. And some true crime stuff.
It's been 3 months and I'm still genuinely nervous that this man is alive.

Literally writing a verbal fighting scene and it's tense af. My entire body is reacting as though I am the one having an argument.
