My New Novel!

ALEMMIA:
a law of attraction novel

Lady Writer

I write about literature, language, love, and living off your pen. Also, fortifying fiction, personal amelioration, and tea.

Studying while listening to the His Dark Materials

Studying while listening to the His Dark Materials musical anthology on repeat. 🥰 'Scholastic Sanctuary' and 'Mrs. M. Coulter' are my favourites.⁠
⁠
📚 Also, I've reached Book 6 of Middlemarch, and... I'm no longer reading it with any expectation of pleasure. I feel like Eliot is relishing in portraying her characters at their worst, specifically picking out their faults and their pettiest thoughts. How can one town have so many dislikable people? 😭⁠
⁠
I don't understand praise of Middlemarch as "intellectual", or as showing a deep social understanding of its period. It sounds very Victorian to me, and I don't see it straying beyond the middle class. As for psychological insights, I feel like Austen has more of that, while remaining concise, compassionate, and extremely amusing! 😊💕⁠
⁠
However, I'm open to discussion. Feel free to (try to) change my mind. 😉⁠

⁠Happy Handwriting Day! 😊🖤✍🏻⁠⠀
⁠⠀
It snowed all day Sunday, so I sat at home and started a dark academia story that I've been turning over in my mind for a while.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I enjoyed my slow scribbling so much that I wrote all afternoon, and the snow and the pen and ink contributed to the mood of the story.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
What have you been writing, and what with? Have you considered matching the instrument to the subject? 🖋⁠⠀

In case you don’t know, I’m currently working

In case you don’t know, I’m currently working on translating a fin de siècle Turkish novel titled 𝑭𝒐𝒓𝒃𝒊𝒅𝒅𝒆𝒏 𝑳𝒐𝒗𝒆 (Aşk-ı Memnu). It was made into a popular TV series some years ago, starring Beren Saat, who is also the star of the new Netflix series, The Gift (Atiye). I finished watching The Gift last weekend. I was particularly excited to see Göbekli Tepe on the screen. Overall, I enjoyed the first season, though I can’t deny I would have enjoyed it more if I understood what was going on. 🤔 I thought the acting was great though. 👍😊 Have you seen it? What did you think? 📚 If you’d like to read my translation of 𝑭𝒐𝒓𝒃𝒊𝒅𝒅𝒆𝒏 𝑳𝒐𝒗𝒆, you can find it under For Readers > Translations on my website. I’m about halfway through, and I’ve just published another chapter! 😊
