Stray thoughts of the evening

[bluedalahorse]

Here are my stray thoughts, in a bulleted list:

•  I think I’d like to do more beta reading for fanfiction. Not spelling and grammar check (I’m bad at those) but helping people with story structure and development. I love writing my own stories but it’s just as magical to play midwife to someone else’s. Maybe this is something I can seek out more.
• I have this half-formed post in the back of my head about how it feels like meta in fandom used to be something that fed into the creative process, but now it doesn’t feel like that as much anymore. Maybe I’ll find the words for it and maybe I won’t.
• I have entirely too many grades to do over the next 72 hours.
• It is better to be Here than There, but nonetheless, missing people sucks. This could be a theme of multiple chapters of my life.
• Missing people sucks but eggplant and lebne spread on rice cakes doesn’t. At least there’s eggplant and lebne spread.

Good night, Dreamwidth. Sleep well!
