Sorry folks, but I seem to be updating blogspot very infrequently these days, for a couple of reasons. Maybe it's because I've found a supportive medium in Tumblr, with all its people and ideas and gifsets and general thoughtfulness. I've learnt to write better there over the past few months, and the layout of blogpost just doesn't feel as conductive, and definitely lacks the sense that I'm actually addressing my post to a fixed group of people, which helps me to find a voice to write in. I could bury the things I write amidst clever reblogs and the 'read more' function, so it's a way to free myself from the need to be 'perfect' (perfection is a lie), and I wouldn't have to worry about being clever and well-written all the time. I could just write an easy introduction, and write everything else under 'read more's in bullet points.
That said, here's my Tumblr, and you can find the things I write under the 'blog' tag you can find in the 'about me' section (although reading those in isolation from the other reblogs feels very jarring). I might post one or two of the longer things I write here, just to keep a record if you're still coming here!
*be warned, my Tumblr is a bastion of fandom, feminism, and LGBT rights, with the occasional thing about politics, literature, and movies thrown in (although I'd definitely think the last two is part of being in fandoms! What, you haven't heard of the TS Eliot fandom?)
