"Ci sono parecchi libri che dopo averli letti mi hanno lasciato per sempre diverso da com’ero prima,..."
“Ci sono parecchi libri che dopo averli letti mi hanno lasciato per sempre diverso da com’ero prima, e penso che tutta la buona letteratura in qualche modo affronti il problema della solitudine e agisca come suo lenitivo. Siamo tutti tremendamente, tremendamente soli. Ma c’è qualcosa, quantomeno nei romanzi e nei racconti, che ti permette di entrare in intimità con il mondo, e con un’altra mente, e con certi personaggi, in un modo in cui non puoi proprio farlo nel mondo reale.”
- David Foster Wallace intervistato da Hugh Kennedy e Geoffrey Polk in Un antidoto contro la solitudine (via minimumfax)

Ancient Alphabets.
Thedan Script - used extensively by Gardnerian Witches
Runic Alphabets - they served for divinatory and ritual purposes, as well as the more practical use; there are three main types of Runes; Germanic, Scandinavian/Norse, and Anglo-Saxon and they each have any number of variations, depending on the region from which they originate
Celtic and Pictish - early Celts and their priests, the Druids, had their own form of alphabet known as “Ogam Bethluisnion”, which was an extremely simple alphabet used more for carving into wood and stone, than for general writing, while Pictish artwork was later adopted by the Celts, especially throughout Ireland
Ceremonial Magick Alphabets - “Passing the River”, “Malachim” and “Celestial” alphabets were used almost exclusively by ceremonial magicians

“Lettera come un modo ultraterreno di comunicazione, meno perfetto del sogno, ma regolato dalle stesse leggi. Né lettera né sogno vengono a comando: si sogna e si scrive non quando noi ne abbiamo voglia, ma quando ha voglia: la lettera - di essere scritta; il sogno – di apparirci. ”— Marina Cvetaeva

“Scrivimi una lettera inospitale
qualcosa che mi spintoni
all’aperto, mi dia
mondo. Scrivimi come mi
soffiassi via dal muro
l’ombra troppo invadente
di una gigantesca mano, come mi
baciassi, rompendo l’incantesimo
dell’infanzia intoccabile.
Mandami un vino forte riga
per riga, un sangue
che macchia e smisura
le parole. Mandami a me,
mandami alla consegna,
come un pacco prezioso
in carta casuale,
un neonato in regalo
una faccia spalancata
al cosmo. Scucimi dal tempo
come astro rapido, estremo,
come orizzonte cancellato
dalle onde
mutevoli del senso.”

Reasons to Keep Writing
•everyone starts small. just because you’re not big now, doesn’t mean you’ll never be. and if you’re just starting out, keep in mind those bigger blogs have been writing for much longer than you. building a following takes time.
•there will always be someone who enjoys your writing. every like, reblog, and comment is one person who enjoyed what you wrote and i can assure you they want more! and remember, not everyone remembers to leave evidence that they liked your writing or they might just be too nervous to interact with you. invisible fans exist, and you’ve got them.
•going along with that last one, your writing has the potential to help others! you could write about a minority, or maybe you could publish a little something comforting at the exact time someone else needs it. and most of the time, when you affect someone like this they’ll tell you, whether it be through tags, or a private message or whatever. that’s an amazing feeling.
•getting a compliment from someone becomes a sure-fire way to make your day better. nothing feels greater than seeing a comment from someone saying how much they love something you worked hard on. maybe write down these comments somewhere, so you can look at them when you’re feeling negative about your skills as a writer.
•writer’s block is not the end of your writing career. it sure feels like it sometimes, but everyone, even the popular writers you look up to, suffer from writer’s block. everyone puts out work they’re not 100% satisfied with sometimes, and that’s okay! when you get out of this slump, your writing will be better than ever before and you’ll enjoy it again. keep writing through a block so you can get there sooner.
These are the things I think about when I feel bad about my writing, so I hope they can help someone else too.

This Romantic Writer Was Truly A Romantic
Mary Shelley – writer of Frankenstein, wife of poet Percy Shelley, and daughter of women’s rights advocate Mary Wollstonecraft – was also an lgbtqia+ supporter. Though she would never have used that term. In 1827, Shelley helped obtain false documents for her friends Isabel Robinson and Mary Diana Dods; the two were in love, and wanted to move to France as husband and wife. With Shelley’s help they were successful, and Mary eventually visited them, at their new home in France.
