Okay, let me explain this because I get that it can be read wrong. This super awesome person here is Osric Chau and he is a BAMF and should not be messed with because he is a super ninja at like a thousand types of martial arts. He is also green because he went to Superhero Night as the Hulk. BAMF again.
Now he is also known from “2012”, “Kunf Fu Killer” and “Supernatural”. He lives in three different countries because why the hell not. No, literally, he is seriously compulsive and awesome.
He sat with me for a good 40 minutes at Asylum 10, at a party he didn’t even have to go to, and basically turned my life on a 180. For 40 minutes he told me how to get started in acting. He told me what to say and who to, how to make connections with the right people, what looks good on a resume and what’s gonna land you a job. He took his time and explained anything I didn’t understand. He really treated me like an equal when he could have brushed me off and gone to sit in the VIP area. He even bothered to learn my name, then proceeded to say hi to me and give me a hug when he saw me all weekend. He is the first person in however long that didn’t blow me off when I said I wanted to be an actress. He said “Yeah, I believe you. This is how to do it” and then told me he was expecting big things from me whenever he hugged me. He showed me, a complete stranger, some faith. The freaking life lessons he taught me were incredible. He taught me that if I wanted to do something in life, just to do it. And he seems pretty freaking happy about it too!
He wrote the message at the top of this (super awesome) picture “as a reminder” and told me to keep in touch, told me to message him whenever, for whatever.
He basically showed me so much respect and was so lovely to me all weekend that I am crying writing this. He was the reason I went to Asylum 10 and my god he was 239859 time more incredible that I ever expected. He made the con for me.
Osric Chau, ladies and gents, is a super awesome being. Thank you.
and now people ship us omg

Submitting is like plucking your eyebrows- No wait, let me explain!!
Remember when my brain was mush after sending off 3 query submissions? Yeah, well three days later that number is 11 and my brain has developed some kind of coping mechanism where it just runs on autopilot and every so often I’ll blink and go “Oh. I’ve done a lot-ish. Wow.” And it just keeps trucking. I’m gonna use the analogy of plucking your eyebrows for this whole process. The first time you do it, it’s kinda scary (‘cause you’re taking a sharp metal tool to sensitive skin dangerously close to your eyeball) and it hurts like a mother. But when you’re done you like the results (just not the redness that makes you look strikingly similar to a rodeo clown) so you keep doing it. It still hurts, it’s still nerve wracking, but by the end you look relatively well groomed and you’re happy about that. And the more you do it, the less it hurts (insert sexual innuendo joke here).
That’s how this submitting process has been for me so far. Scary and irritating, but the more I hit send the prouder I am of myself for doing it and the easier it is to keep going.
Which is what I’m gonna do. Right now. After I eat something and have my 4th-5th-no definitely 4th cup of coffee.
Yippee!

Stephen King on why he keeps writing:
“The major job is still to entertain people. Joyland really took off for me when the old guy who owns the place says, ‘Never forget, we sell fun.’ That’s what we’re supposed to do—writers, filmmakers, all of us. That’s why they let us stay in the playground.”Read the full Parade magazine interview with Stephen King here.

If you ever see me with a shirt on of a show, movie or whatever on it that you love too
you have the right to sit your ass down in front of me and start talking
my public representation of my fandoms is an invitation to come and talk to me about it
