N.F. Jimenez - drafting gay vampire books

Wolfblood. It's a kids show, though, so it's not horror if that's what you wanted. But thought I'd suggest it anyway.

I never mentioned it but yes I have seen the trailer for The Vampire Lestat... multiple times. Frame by frame in that really fast part. 2026 can't come soon enough!!

👀

I need to watch that!!

So I'm basically locked in on sewing right now because I need winter garments ❄️ For some reason I decided to sew a coat even though I've never done it before. Well, there's always a first time. Also making a few warm skirts because I love warm skirts. They're like wearable blankets 😂

You know how with anime there's always one anime non-anime watchers can get into. Khemjira is that for Thai BL, I think.

A drawing of Wu Ming and Calamity Xie Lian. Wu wing is in front with black robes and his smiling mask, which has a crack on the right side, blood tears falling from the left eye. His ponytail blows to the right of the canvas. Both hands are holding Fangxin, which is pointed straight up. Behind Wu Ming is Xie Lian, his robes billowing to the bottom corners of the drawing. His hair fans around him and he is wearing his white mask, bloody tears falling from both eyes. His right hand lays on Wu Mings mask while his left holds Fangxin's blade, blood dripping. The background is a red square with a few Grey clouds around various parts of the drawing.

happy wu ming wednesday

Writing a book feels like being a witch slowly cooking a pot of magic brew. Carefully adding ingredients, stirring clockwise, then counter clockwise, sniffing it, picking up a ladle and inspecting the brew carefully in the moonlight. "Not ready yet," I whisper as I think of adding a dash more angst.

Someone's screenshot of a two-post twitter thread, from user blue (@bluewmist): the fastest way to kill motivation is to make your identity depend on the outcome. it's called ego involvement. when failing becomes failing as a person, your brain starts avoiding the whole thing. not because you don't care, but because you care too much. you don't need lower standards. you need less self-worth tangled up in your goals. the work gets easier when it's not about proving who you are.

Found this on the AO3 subreddit, and I'm about to let it change my whole life (or at least work really hard to internalize it wrt my writing).

Love that for you!

"Watch Khemjira on iQIYI," I tell people, knowing full well what happened in the latest episode.

it's not even about costs, because simple basics can be super expensive if you go for brands. It's just the whole 'social expectations' that I can't with anymore. Life is too short to wear clothes I hate all the time.

May I let out a non-writing related grievance?

I am damn tired of the social pressure to wear basics all the time unless something special is happening. I don't want to wear a simple tee and jeans every day. I hate it. Life is too short. So I'll be out here wearing whatever I want, thanks.

Kill to Love is on gaga. At least in my region.

On iQIYI

The quality of BL dramas we've gotten this year so far... fantastic. Several stand outs. What a time to be a fan.

This week's Khemjira ep omg

So storm update. We still have power and internet. Our neighborhood was lucky.

Choosing to believe this to be the case. Unless Jeff himself says it's not happening, I'll keep believing 😂

I have not given up hope for Happy Ending yet... but I'll need some reassurance soon. Deluding myself into thinking it's still being written and they're just taking time to make sure it's good.

Let me try explaining it to you

So Khem is cursed to die before 21, and a hot shaman who was his lover in a past life tries to save him.

Khem's bff and their hot nerd classmate want to help. They were lesbian lovers in a past life and start falling in love in this life too.

And there's ghosts.

I can't stop thinking about Khemjira. Wdym there are only 4 episodes left?? 😭

Might lose power, might lose water. I know it's silly but I'm hoping I'll be able to watch my saturday BLs tomorrow. I'm prepping food and water so I know I'll at least have that.

This is why weather monitoring is important. We need to know when storms will hit and how bad they'll be.

Might lose power because of Storm Amy.

I say 90%, but it's more like 95%, actually.
I can barely be bothered to watch something without queerness in it. And when I do it has to be damn amazing for me to finish it.
I'm strict about my entertainment like that. And I like it that way. It's my freedom to be picky.

I'm not kidding when I say over 90% of the shows I watch have queer characters and most of those are main characters. If any major streaming platform cave to lunatic bigots and remove everything queer, there is no point for me to subscribe.

No LGBTQ+ characters, no subscription.

1-866-952-4456 to tell Netflix that in no way do you want Elon fucking Musk determining what you watch.

I just called, got through in about 15 seconds, and told them that I strongly support queer inclusion in their programming and that I will cancel my subscription if they cave.

Although I did imagine what if books were printed on those scented Diddl notepads we used to trade back in school like they were pokemon cards 😂
