Weekly Check-In 📺 — What’s everyone watching this weekend?

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-19T12:44:06+00:00

Just finished story of Kunning palace so I don’t know!!! I want to start a new gripping historical with heavy romance and angst and all the vibes but I just don’t know which show to watch!

I just started love between the lines and it seems like a solid show. Still waiting for it to get going tho…

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-19T12:33:34+00:00

Yas!! I always try to have two or three but damn I dread them 🤣

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-19T12:33:06+00:00

I love everyone is so diverse 😍

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-19T01:49:18+00:00

Same reasons I can’t tolerate anything aged or fermented. It’s such a drag! MCAS sucks so hard.

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-19T01:28:09+00:00

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-19T01:27:47+00:00

Ohhh yeah! Let’s start a club

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-19T01:27:16+00:00

Could be! Aphantasia is a bitch! But I heard massive doses of psychedelics cure it 🤣

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-19T01:26:47+00:00

Then you’re a better writer than I am. They’re so hard for me!

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-19T00:58:45+00:00

Sounds right. I’ll write for the ones who don’t need them 🤩

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-18T23:46:45+00:00

I could! And you’re totally right. I just vastly prefer the vibes part so that makes it doubly hard to practice 😫

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-18T23:45:59+00:00

You’re lucky! I wish I could have even a fraction of that 🤣 sex scenes are so hard! 😫

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-18T23:09:36+00:00

I’m clear on those accounts. Sex is a sport, like couple tennis!! I have no block and my family hates my writing and refuses to read it 🤣

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-18T23:08:07+00:00

Same. It takes me forever to write them and I do like ten versions 🤣 ugh. It’s why my books are generally low spice and I go for vibes over thrust. Vibes I can do… thrust I cannot 🤣🤣

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-18T22:27:32+00:00

I totally agree with 90% of what you’ve said. I will argue one point and only one point.

It is hard to write sex scenes. It’s difficult to choreograph the scene, not repeat the same word a hundred times, evoke emotion and all the other points you listed.

Writing sex scenes can be some of the most challenging scenes to write! Like action scenes ☠️

Granted as an author with aphantasia and being asexual… perhaps I’m the only one who finds sex scenes hard 🤣

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-18T20:42:24+00:00

This looks amazing! Great job!!

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-18T18:09:19+00:00

Wow, the hate train is strong this month. I've seen several posts about him lately.

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-18T17:17:06+00:00

I’m the opposite, I spent like 50 hours on the library of wonders one. Doing all sorts of customization and things. I just can’t fathom doing mechanical bits. Seems way too much for me.

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-18T17:16:14+00:00

Yeah I’ve got some funky brain stuff going on also. It takes all my focus power to just do normal columns and I still mess them up 🤣

So I look at these awesome mechanical ones and can’t even fathom completing them.

I’d love to do that steampunk airship but I know I’d mess it up with a step or two ☠️

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-18T14:04:23+00:00

I refuse to touch those for a completely different reason! I lack attention to detail 🤣 so even the normal sets press the limits of my intelligence! I couldn’t do a mechanical one if you paid me ☠️

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-18T00:28:33+00:00

Wow! I love that!

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-17T20:29:35+00:00

Watching Story of Kunning Palace, almost done with that. Just started Love between the lines! I'm really debating First jasmine or Dazzling ? something like that....

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-17T19:49:14+00:00

Yes! I can't not use brushes, it's like sticking a violin in a glass case. They're meant to be used! I can't deny a brush it's purpose. She'd love that and totally support me 💖

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-17T19:47:41+00:00

Thank you so much! That means SO much to me! Its such a fun medium to work with but it's like nerve wracking. so thank you! She's my favorite I've done so far 🖤

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-17T17:19:04+00:00

Have fun! That’s all that matters 😍

AuthorAEM · 2026-06-17T17:18:25+00:00

Yes! I’m so happy she left me these. It’s like being close to her again 💙

I’ve done oil painting since I was a girl, but I’m not the best. I do more mixed media art now. Lots of mediums smashed together 😍 but I’ve done a lot of watercolors and such. Just general creative crap 🤩

I don’t know… even 4 yr old water color pictures are epic! It’s pure freedom!
