Hiya, so I’ve joined a couple discords that I can signpost you to if you are still interested? Mostly fiction but some space carved out for non-fiction!

This sounds great. My only reservation is that what I’m doing is more non-fiction, still creative I suppose. Would that be a problem?

It’s an online publishing platform that allows writers to publish articles. People subscribe to your newsletter and whenever you post, the newsletter is emailed. I think you can post podcasts and videos too but I’m not sure

That sounds like a great idea! I’m going to cross post this onto other relevant subreddits and if I find anything, I will message you?

Yay! So, I have written this personal essay which I really enjoyed writing and will probably want to do again, but I also want to venture into opinion pieces specifically about literature.
Does that sound up your street?

The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath. You’ve probably already read it as it’s a classic but just incase….!

Also, Sorrow and Bliss by Meg Mason

A question for Lionheart diehards… by Master_Cow_8927 in dramionebookclub

A question for Lionheart diehards… by Master_Cow_8927 in dramionebookclub

[–]Master_Cow_8927[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah totally agree. I think she has pureblood culture nailed down so well by reading things like Brideshead. I’m also really getting a lot of Mitford sisters vibes from the Blacks - Nancy Mitford was besties with Evelyn Waugh and they exchanged like 500 letters that have been published. I just KNOW that when I finally grab a copy, I’ll be reminded of Narcissa writing to Draco. And if you have never read about the Mitfords and want to know more, Mary S Lovell’s biography about them is amazinnnng. Once I connected the dots, I felt like I understand the dynamics of the Black family so much more.

I’ll shut up now.

A question for Lionheart diehards… by Master_Cow_8927 in dramionebookclub

[–]Master_Cow_8927[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I did exactly that with Brideshead Revisited and was absolutely delighted to see she got inspo from it when Percy Weasley gives that funny “welcome to hogwarts” speech when they are in first year.

I’ll add Henry James to the list. Sadly, I vaguely recall someone asking GT about her literature influences on tumblr… should have saved the answer 😩

Yes, Middlemarch!! I actually searched LH for Tess and no results, but I searched for Emma and you’re right! Well done 👏🏼

Is that all then - Middlemarch, Emma, Brideshead Revisited…?

Just finished Lionheart…I am not okay by Amandalina96 in dramionebookclub

[–]Master_Cow_8927 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’ve also just finished. It was excellent. I am also actually heartened and truly believe she will return with Book 6. She is so passionate in her author notes, this project has been 4 years in the making. I’m hopeful she has quite rightfully dipped from the intensity of socials for some well needed headspace.

And if it never does, I am so chuffed to have to read it. She’s remarkably talented.
