You can experience strong emotions...

While readingโwho hasnโt cried or laughed at a book? Raise your hand if you've ever tossed one across the room. ๐โ๏ธ
The feelings fiction gives you are real and can stay with you for days, weeks, or a lifetime. But they stem from something unreal, which is why fiction reminds us that emotions are a reaction to stimuli. It reminds us that we are notย justย our feelings.
We are not our jobs, families, genders, or any other facet of our identities.
We are the silence between the pauses. Which sounds super highfalutin and philosophical, but is actually just a universal truth. And reading fiction helps us navigate it.
Our feelings are reactions. That doesnโt mean they are not important. Because while we are the infinite nothing, we are also human. We wouldnโt be here in these corporal forms feeling all these feelings if we werenโt supposed to be.
Personally, the current dystopian state of the worldโclimate crisis disasters, Oligarchs, aspiring dictators and their ignorant cult following, heart-wrenching wars, forced birth laws in the land of the โfreeโ, etcโhas me riled up.
Mostly Iโm angry, but Iโm also sad and occasionally hopeless. Though Iโm not one to ever give up. I have way too much fury for that. ๐
If youโre also reacting strongly to our reality, then I recommend you read my books. They are feminist, rage-filled, vigilante crime fiction that let you satisfy the bloodthirsty monster seething inside you while also creating the opportunity to remember that the beast can be closed between the pages of a book when you need it to be. It might help save you from assault charges next time you see a red hat suggesting we go back to some mystical time when things were โgreatโโฆ๐คข
