Comics Wrap-Up - So. Unnecessary.

It's Thursday, I am peak tired millennial, let's get some comics-y superhero-y goodness!

Poetry: Who Is She?

 

This poem was first published in the Medium publication The Brain Is A Noodle (TBIAN), for the prompt 'is writing a source of income for you? or more a hobby? or both? How do you balance these roles?' set by Lucy Dan (editor of TBIAN)

Nerd Church - Writing A Full Blogpost In 32 Minutes

 

Turns out, I can write a whole-a** blogpost in 32 minutes.

...I know - I was surprised too!

OK, so I was kinda brain-foggy this week, and ended up writing both this week's Comics Wrap-Up (CWU) and Friday Fics Fix (F3) posts the day before they were due to go live on the blog.

One day, I will be a blogger that can schedule content well ahead of time, but that day is a long way off 😅

Friday Fics Fix - Adorkable Lokius Fluff

'“That’s incredibly dorky.”

“I learned from the best.”'

 

Let's get some Loki fluff - just because, really.

(There's also a fair edge of angst, because I have an emo goblin spaghetti brain.)

Comics Wrap-Up - The Biggest Target

It's Thursday, I'm tired, let's get some comics-y superhero-y goodness!

Nerd Church - The Writer Diaries: Thinking Way Too Much About Poetic POVs

 

I've been writing a lot of poetry lately -

(mainly over on Medium, but don't worry - it all gets cross-posted here on Dora Reads eventually, I promise!)

- And it led to me thinking (as I do,) about the Point of View (POV) in poetry.

See, the 'I' in poetry is called the 'speaker' - because that's the person who's speaking.

But the speaker is not always the same as the poet. 

Friday Fics Fix - Bucky-Barnes-Based and Weird

Warning: this post discusses mental health problems and symptoms, specifically those related to Depression

'Trouble starts before they even get out of the city. Bucky’s car is a disaster. It’s not as bad as his apartment, but still messy enough to be very embarrassing and not helping in convincing Sam his assumptions about him are wrong.'

Yes, it's Bucky-Barnes-based. Yes, it's a weird one.

I was honestly looking for something different this week, but sometimes, amongst all the fanfiction I consume on a weekly basis, it just ends up coming back - again - to Bucky Barnes.

...and I'm OK with that. 

I am trash. And you know this. 😅
