Nerd Church - Caffeinated Current Events: A Glossary
I'm full of coffee and political opinions!
Let's talk about some of the words and phrases we're using in 2018!
Disclaimer: This is satire, or trying to be anyhow, so that's why it sounds like I'm taking things lightly!
Also, I do talk about Brett Kavanaugh, so, heads up.

Friday Fics Fix - Awkward Flirting In An Alternate Universe
'Harry wasn’t entirely sure where he was, or why, but walking into a condemned building just for it to transform into one of the raunchiest-looking clubs Harry had had the misfortune of entering wasn’t a good sign.'
Week 2 of our Harry Potter-themed fanfiction fest my nerdlets!
Because October = Harry Potter.
I don't make the rules!!!!*
I just abide by them!!!!!*

Nerd Church - The Writer Diaries: The More You Learn About Writing, The Less You Seem To Know
It’s weird. It’s really weird.
The more you write, the less confidence you have in what you’re writing.
You notice every goddamn flaw like it’s screeching at you.
(If you’re writing horror, maybe it is. But I guess that would be the point, right? 😆)
The more you write, the more convinced you are that you’ll never be a ‘good’ writer – whatever the hell that is.
And then, with this weirdly inflated sense of imposter syndrome filling you, you try to
seek out the wisdom of the all-powerful interwebs.
And that goes about as well as you can expect…

Friday Fics Fix - Just Desserts
'"Are you sure you're interested only in the tart?" Ron asks lightly, to which Harry simply pretends he has no idea what he's talking about.'
It's October! And October means Harry Potter fanfiction here on Dora Reads! 😊
This week's fic is from my new favourite sub-genre of 'fics where Ron is determined to make Drarry happen, because they're both irritating him with their goddamn mutual pining.'
(Fangirling notes: Drarry is a romantical and/or sexual relationship between Draco Malfoy and Harry Potter.)
