ever since I moved into my apartment last month, I feel so much more at ease - and don’t get me wrong, some things are still so much troubling but we all know that years of abuse and tears will not heal within a month of pure sanity. I know that this healing process takes time 🪐 reblog is ok, don’t repost

Sure, buying a book is great and all. However, the rush one feels when a library book hold is ready, is like a holiday gift waiting to be opened, and I think that’s pretty awesome, too.

anyone else get a little burst of love in their heart when they see a typo in a fic? like it's something intimate? like fingerprints in pottery or a favorite cup thats two halves glued back together? like its made with a quiet love?

My Debut novel

Title: "The disappearance"

Genre: Drama/Mystery

Setting: A small town in Germany

Current Word Count: 30,000

Narrative: First person

Tense: Present tense

Topics/Trigger Warnings:

Mental health (panic attacks, depression)

Definition of having life "under control"

Sexism, homophobia

Grief

Summary:

Ever since Janna's sister disappeared, she struggles to engage with life, feeling apathetic and paralyzed. When her sister is found dead, Janna realizes that everything has changed irreversibly. Caught between anger and grief, she embarks on a quest to uncover the identity of her sister's assailant, stumbling upon an unimaginable secret. As she navigates this dark journey, her past resurfaces, raising questions about the choices she made.

Characters:

Janna (she/her): A 23-year-old (former) university student, the protagonist. She's a deeply sensitive and calm individual who has experienced profound pain and sorrow, transforming these emotions into something much darker. She resists returning to normalcy, with her sole focus on discovering who harmed her sister.

Kory (he/him): Janna's supportive best friend who stands by her side, emphasizing that she is not alone in her struggle.

Marik (he/him): Sophie's boyfriend, unknown to Janna before her sister's disappearance. Janna finds him dubious, suspecting that he shares a connection with the darkness that now consumes her.

Sophie (she/her): Janna's younger sister, who vanished and was later found murdered. A lively and vibrant soul with many secrets.

Quotes that reminde me of my book:

"Nobody realizes that some people expend tremendous energy merely to be normal." - Albert Camus

"I cannot make you understand. I cannot make anyone understand what is happening inside me. I cannot even explain it to myself." - Franz Kafka, The Metamorphosis

"All roads lead to the realization of the insignificance of all things, but none lead back." - Juli Zeh

"I am simply mortal, like other people catch a cold. In every second, I feel the symptoms." - Juli Zeh

"To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all." - Oscar Wilde

"So, this is my life. And I want you to know that I am both happy and sad and I'm still trying to figure out how that could be." - Stephen Chbosky

"I took a deep breath and listened to the old brag of my heart. I am, I am, I am." - Sylvia Plath

Does anybody have any solid recommendations for short (or even long) stories that use third person omniscient well, for writers who have never read/written it, but want to get a feel for whether they want to?
