Currently, both of them are on the backburner. There's a thought loitering in my head for the past two years. The thought of how my relationship with art has changed since it became a career.

romance/other genre/fanfic writers will literally spend days researching a throwaway line detail that no one else will ever notice but Important Literary Men google 'red dye recipe' and then use one from Zelda because it’s the first result, but sure it’s genre folks writing trash https://twitter.com/ithayla/status/1290349041805438984

romance novelists, btw, will read hundreds of pages of primary documents to find the price of a pound of sugar in 1873, a detail which is mentioned once and never used again.
