On the Usefulness of Long Codpieces

Predictably, my favorite item in the Imaginary Books show at the
#GrolierClub is this codpiece "found" with Panurge's book! #Rabelais #Fiction #WriteWhatYouKnow
Exhibition shelf with a large brocade "codpiece" with straps, and a large vellum book purporting to relate to Rabelais's character Panurge, and accompanying labels.

My latest hero (58M) was a project manager, quit his job for reasons, and still has to do project management on a contract basis to support himself and isn't happy about it. 🤣

“Owner of an AI company” seems to be the lazy, go-to romance hero job of 2025, and I’d like to just make the case for bringing back tattoo artists.

Authentic writing draws its power from lived experience — without engaging with the world, stories risk becoming hollow, repetitive, and emotionally unearned. #WritingAdvice #AmWriting #WriteWhatYouKnow #StoryCraft #WritersLife #DraftHappens

Unsolicited writing advice, no. 276:
So many ideas come to us because we interact with the world. Things we notice; things we read; people we meet; roads we tread; questions we ask. Don't just sit at your desk waiting. Be curious. Go looking.

Fantasy and RPG authors - please research things before attempting to describe them!

If your "mead" is foamy and sour and tastes like what you imagine a city puddle tastes like, that's not mead! But it could be botulism...
