Fiction about sex: is it possible to actually understand something so fundamental? This author has something to say about that.

@TeresaEmma15 @noveliciouss It sure is nice when you can find a book like that.

@noveliciouss When you open the first page, you leave everyday life behind, like closing the door of your house before leaving, and then a good book, like a train to an unknown city, takes you to places you never expected to visit.

@AlexBerenson I think the reason it matters is that Fauci was funding the Wuhan lab, so denial was in the interests of protecting him. Not totally sure about this though.

And the left has now reached the “sure, it’s true, but it doesn’t matter” stage of the Covid lab leak coverup Congrats, James!

Sexual fiction about what other people do: is it possible to convey the curiosity? It is said to be impossible. I disagree.

When you first started writing, did you realise that making a living as an author was about learning to market your books? Writing a decent story is starting to feel like the easy part...😂

@marsfirelight Are you sure about the intensity, though? Sometimes it can metastasize into controlling-ness. I prefer low to medium intensity.

emotional safety is the upgrade nobody talks about. same chemistry, just with intention, care, and way more intensity.

@zermatist Claude is telling me that body/soul dualism in a Christian context comes from Aquinas and Augustine through their reading of the Greeks

@breatheeasyteam @noveliciouss I think the best way to think of this is: SOME of our reality is perceived through the senses, of which sight is one.

That’s so true. Maybe our reality is not actually perceived through the eyes. Not that they aren’t sensors, they are. But your brain creates the reality from all inputs, maybe thoughts? If you can see in a dream, with your eyes shut, is that not proof that you can create perceived reality without your eyes? 🤔
