Had fun with #CoverGala last night.
I use the word “gorgeous” to describe book covers too much.

Quick question: any ideas of really iconic/recognizable book covers that I could easily parody for my art project?
The fault in our stars, eleanor & park (this particulary has a 1989 kind of look to me), maybe one of the mortal instruments?, those look kinda like 1989′s cover too.
I really wish Richelle Mead book covers didn’t look like bad glamour shots.
they want to silence me
I need you to know the truth before they get here
The prompts…is me trying to remember my past. They are after me for answers. To learn about the secrets of the universe. But humanity is not ready. They never will be.
Prompt Guy glances around, his gaze landing on the surrounding grey of early morning: the concrete, the walls, the mist that hung in the air. They were coming – Prompt Guy didn’t know who or even what – but there was some sort of sense: they were coming. They want to silence him for all the memories that are returning and all the secrets a-spilling. Like a band of ruling overlords of the multiverse, they will not be stopped. They will find him, and they will silence him.
Unless…
We take it upon ouselves, us the writers and merry amigos, to write out every prompt – every memory ever posted. We must immortalise those memories before they take them.
We can do it.
letters to the signs, written by a cancer
dear aries, forgive yourself, move on, and remember: your past is nothing but the ashes of something that once shook your world. it can no longer harm you. your future, however, is beautiful and unpredictable as if it were a wide, open sea. it’s time to set sail.
dear taurus, you are no less a part of the universe than the sun dancing on your shoulders and the wind kissing at your cheeks; you deserve to take up space unapologetically.
dear gemini, i know you’re afraid of change but i promise that life can be so beautiful once you accept that nothing stays the same. change is inevitable. you will be okay. everything is okay.
dear cancer, you are not as fragile as they say you are. your heart may be weathered but that only proves that you have and will brave the fiercest of storms.
dear leo, you are brave but that doesn’t mean you have to be fearless. there’s nothing wrong with admitting that you’re afraid. let someone else take the lead every once and awhile.
dear virgo, you have broken your back countless times but you are not a greek god & you are not built to carry the weight of the world on your shoulders. learn to take care of yourself the way you have always taken care of others.
dear libra, i know how the loneliness eats away at you but there is no better company than your own. spend everyday rekindling the love that you lost for yourself all those years ago. i promise it’s worth your time.
dear scorpio, i know how sick you must be of shaking in bed alone but i promise that forever is not composed of sleepless nights and soon enough you will find safety in your own skin.
dear sagittarius, never paint yourself gray just because the world has taught you to be afraid of showing your true colors. embrace your beauty in all of it’s strange and wonderful glory. fall in love with the most important person in your life; you.
dear capricorn, you have not been treated the way you should be treated. you are so much more than you have been led to believe. find someone who will appreciate all that you are and all that you do. accept the love you deserve.
dear aquarius, never settle for anything less than what you have earned. your freedom is more important than their selfish desires. if someone asks you to sacrifice your happiness in place of their own, leave.
dear pisces, you have always been admired for wearing your heart on your sleeve but you must be careful when deciding where to place that kind of trust because not everyone can be as loving as you.
my favorite thing about au fanfiction the sheer range of it. how like sometimes the tag is like “alternate universe- they’re werewolf space pirates in charge of stopping their planet from being blown up by ancient immortal aliens from another realm” and sometimes it’s “alternate universe- chefs”
and sometimes it’s ‘alternate universe- everything is identical except that scene in season 18 episode 21 went very slightly differently’
