Inspired by the cringe experience of sending a (horny!) ask to the wrong mutual who then published it in good faith:
Dreamling tumblrinas where Dream runs a blog on writing and when Hob sends the most beautiful erotic short fic he's ever read he has to wax lyrical about it but then Hob begs him to delete the ask.
I keep thinking that maybe one day I'll write a fic where Hob has a porny tumblr blog.... so this is very much adjacent to the way I'm thinking atm.
And remember my friend. There is no cringe. Only freedom.
So Dream runs this blog and its very sfw actually!! He posts romance fiction and moodboards and occasionally fantasy things, plus generalised writing tips. And he also publishes asks from other writers who want to be anon/just want somewhere to share their work.
And then he gets this VERY nsfw piece from an anon writer, something he'd usually be uncomfy about but it's SO GOOD. Dream posts it and gushes about the quality of the writing and how the author has managed to write believable smut that is also so beautiful.
He gets a panicked DM from another user (Hob) who's like omg im so sorry, that was meant to go to an nsfw blogger, i can't believe i sent unsolicited porn pls forgive me.
And Dream stalks the user's blog and falls totally in love with their aesthetic. Hob posts snippets from his writing, photography (a lot of nude self portraits) and academia themed moodboards. Dream immediately reads everything that Hob has ever written and still craves more... how can he possibly persuade Hob to drop beautiful nsfw asks in his inbox as a regular thing?
Bonus: they actually know each other in real life as acquaintances, and work in the same library. It's not until their eyes meet over a stack of spicy romance books that Dream makes the connection between fully dressed, beige slacks and jumper wearing Hob... and the nude photos on that tumblr blog <3

Cait’s latest IG follow (latelier3030ibiza)… There are barely any followers and it seems interesting considering Cait apparently is involved in something that’s coming out soon (re: “more details to follow” from that one photographer who posted a portrait of her). Also “Ibiza” seemed funny lol
Maybe this is that new project and FMN actually isn’t coming back? What do you think? I wonder why Cait would be the 26th follower for a brand that’s not even released yet.
Dear Follow Anon,
Thank you for the info: it's latelier303ibiza, if you are looking for it and want to have a chance of finding something.
Just look at her, Our Lady of the Rings. Actively following IG accounts based in New York, as we speak:
Tumblr media
The wonderful PEN Club America (the folks at PEN Greece are personal friends of this blogger). For the Mordor ignoramuses, this is world's most prestigious writers' network. Funnily enough, I will soon co-host a book launch with the PEN Greece people (I wrote the Foreword, because I am damn stupid and a nutcase). It is a wonderful interbellum Romanian novel, probably the most beautiful ever written in my native language. And is was translated to Greek by one of our best family friends. /self-promo moment
An art studio in the Meatpacking district. Her taste, not necessarily mine, but duly noted.
And then the Ibiza thing, which looks like... well.. a fashion something. Very clearly a new brand. Looks youthful, funny and uhm... very Eighties?
On verra, Anon. We shall see. As for FMN, I already gave you my sentiment: anything goes.
Just don't hold your breath yet, ok? :)

Despite my carefully cultivated reputation for contrarianism, my answer to the first question is “not really.” When it comes to the canon, I’m pretty much a normie; the test of time is a real test. Back in 2017, all the literary bloggers were listing the books in their “personal canons.” I participated too, but introduced my take on the exercise by saying that I would only list formative works of nonfiction, particularly philosophy and literary/political theory, since my actual favorite books were so boring. I wrote, “Greatest writer of the modern west? Shakespeare. Greatest English novel? Middlemarch. Greatest twentieth-century novel? Ulysses. My favorite lyric poem, I tell you no lie, is the ‘Ode on a Grecian Urn.’” Then I quoted Emerson (my favorite American essayist, by the way) from “Experience”:
[I]n popular experience, everything good is on the highway. A collector peeps into all the picture-shops of Europe, for a landscape of Poussin, a crayon-sketch of Salvator; but the Transfiguration, the Last Judgment, the Communion of St. Jerome, and what are as transcendent as these, are on the walls of the Vatican, the Uffizii, or the Louvre, where every footman may see them; to say nothing of nature’s pictures in every street, of sunsets and sunrises every day, and the sculpture of the human body never absent. A collector recently bought at public auction, in London, for one hundred and fifty-seven guineas, an autograph of Shakspeare: but for nothing a school-boy can read Hamlet, and can detect secrets of highest concernment yet unpublished therein. I think I will never read any but the commonest books—the Bible, Homer, Dante, Shakspeare, and Milton.
So I have no quarrel with the books you’ve listed. (Caveats: I unfortunately must plead ignorance on the classical Chinese and Japanese novels; also, I never went beyond Swann’s Way in Proust.) Some of the names you mention are if anything underrated or not rated in their proper dimension: do people understand how transcendently good Wuthering Heights and Villette really are, not just as the stormy romances the Brontës are known for, as if they wrote nothing better than the precursors to Rebecca, but as genuine spiritual and social testaments, the prose successors to Milton, Blake, and Shelley, Melville’s trans-Atlantic sisters, as well as ingenious formal inventions to rival Austen or Flaubert? (As for “the other guy” though, I started but did not finish The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. The talent, it seems to me, ran in the blood only so much.)
If we must have controversy, since you mentioned Madame Bovary, I am ambivalent about Flaubert and his influence, though I should probably revisit him soon. (I read Madame Bovary, Sentimental Education, and Three Tales in my 20s, in translation, albeit with not-incompetent though not-fluent glances into the French.) All that fussing over the sentence, all that inorganic technique—see GD Dess’s recent essay against “craftism,” as well as James Wood’s “Half Against Flaubert” (in The Broken Estate) and Borges’s neglected “The Superstitious Ethics of the Reader” (in Selected Nonfictions) which I quoted here almost a decade ago—to my mind creates an immobilized prose, paragraphs through which no breeze blows, even in post-Flaubert writers as talented as James, Conrad, and Nabokov, and even the Joyce of Dubliners. But Joyce, exceptional in this as in so many things, then transcended the limitation of this aesthetic by making perfected prose move as poetry moves—with a word-by-word drama that opens up the sentence—rather than as prose does in Portrait and Ulysses.
Must we rank? Should we rank? Ranking is inevitable, despite your apt objection to its listicle extremes. Why would we not want to know what the best is? If resources of time and material are scarce—only so many weeks in the semester, only so many pages in the anthology, only so many days in your life—then it’s a practical matter to know what comes first. We just have to be careful not to be small-minded about it. I think of Orwell’s judicious comparison of Tolstoy and Dickens as a model of how to think carefully in these matters, attentive to difference as well as to quality. (This can be extrapolated mutatis mutandis into areas where social biases like race, nation, class, and gender may enter, as nation and class do enter into a comparison between Dickens and Tolstoy.)
Does this mean that Tolstoy’s novels are ‘better’ than Dickens’s? The truth is that it is absurd to make such comparisons in terms of ‘better’ and ‘worse’. If I were forced to compare Tolstoy with Dickens, I should say that Tolstoy’s appeal will probably be wider in the long run, because Dickens is scarcely intelligible outside the English-speaking culture; on the other hand, Dickens is able to reach simple people, which Tolstoy is not. Tolstoy’s characters can cross a frontier, Dickens can be portrayed on a cigarette card. But one is no more obliged to choose between them than between a sausage and a rose. Their purposes barely intersect.
My candidate for “best novel”? It probably has to be Ulysses since in its cyclopedic ambit it manages to contain all the others. But I acknowledge a spiritual dimension to experience that Ulysses is finally too secular, too satirical, to encompass, and this is found in Tolstoy and especially Dostoevsky.

What is True narratives?
- true narratives are stories that is true based on facts and experience which contains real plot,settings, characters and etc.
Ex.
- Essay that is based on experience
- Histories
- News
- Biography
An example of a true narrative and my critiques of it.
* One of the Example of True narrative is Tuesdays With Morrie by Mitch Albom Essay
• Introduction
1. The gift by Mr. Dwyer
2. the title is all about "The Gift"
3. Christmas morning in his household resembled a mismanaged zoo where all the animals are let out of their cages at once. The opening of gifts accentuated the portrait of chaotic festivity. An amazing union of order and calamity was forged much like a bellowing wind choosing fire as a dance partner.
3. The child met his father's stare with a syrupy shame that dripped over his naked innocence. The father, however, had found the gift. He smiled at his son. As he walked to the stone he redirected his son's focus to the life within the pond. He climbed on the inviting cool granite platform next to his son and they sat admiring the pond as the father would have years before. He held his son, perhaps forever, in that hour and they were content to follow the movement of the trout as the oblivious band of shoppers hurried about them.
• Summary
*The story revolves around a father and son as they go to a shopping center during the holiday season, which is Christmas. The father recalls his childhood memories of Christmas with his big family while searching for a parking spot and shopping for gifts. When the father realized that his son was missing, he started panicking before finding him safe in a trout pond, which made him realize that the real gift he was looking for was his son. The main point of the story is the father's realization of the importance of cherishing moments with his son, especially during the holiday season, and the bond of the father-son relationship.
* The evidence that this is a true narrative is because of how detailed the descriptions are, like the events where the place occurred, which is the parking lot and store for holidays, another is the emotion of the father for his son.
• Evaluation
1. I love how the story is all about the father and son bonding together and how important it is for the tradition to be kept alive through generations. It shows how strong family ties can be and how a parent feels a strong emotion toward their child.
2. It relates to a broader issue of family dynamics and how parents relate to their children. It also highlights how hard parenting can be, balancing responsibilities, and having strong relationships with their children.
3. The writer's point or main idea was very clearly shown in the story, it creates a meaningful lesson for every parent and reader about how important a relationship with your family is and how it should be cherished.
• Conclusion
1. I agree with the writer that the family is important and cherished because, at the end of the day, they are still family. The part of the story that made an impact on me was where the father panicked about his son and came to the realization that his son was safe and a very dear gift to him.
2. Everyone knows that having a family that is very dear to us is important, especially those who are close to us. Yes, we argue, fight, and have misunderstandings, but we still talk things out and find a way to get along with each other.
3. I like the piece, especially the realization of how children are a gift to their parents and how much responsibility and care they have.
