Another week I probably won't survive and the author who will get me through it.
I've been revisiting the work of Dostoevsky! It's been especially fun after reading a few biographies and bibliographies on him; I love these little things about reading!
Another book I'd like to recommend (not pictured) is The Sinner and The Saint by Kevin Birmingham! Wonderful biography and account of the murder that inspired Crime and Punishment.
Hope everyone has been doing well! Senior year of high school certainly hasn't been kind to me, but we can handle that.

Hello writerā€¦ Ryen is it? Sorry kinda nervous I donā€™t do this kind of thingsā€¦ my wife forced me to do this, she said something about people wanting to hear a manā€™s perspectiveā€¦ thoughtsā€¦? About your story so yeah here I am šŸ˜‚ Hello
I started to read your story mainly out of curiosity, my wife likes to read a lot, on line and of line and Iā€™m always willing to listen to her rant about the characters or stories she reads, it makes her happy and thatā€™s the main goal am i right? so when she started to tell me about your story, first of all I was a bit shocked, itā€™s veryā€¦ risquĆ©šŸ˜‚ and I teased her because she was basically reading pornā€¦ šŸ˜‚ but then she told me how it developed, and I was even more intrigued so after I listened to her talk, and of course after a lot of teasing she told me ā€œshut the fuck off and read it, itā€™s goodā€ her exact fine wordsā€¦ so I did.
First of allā€¦ I understand tangerine man (Yoongi) as a man that once felt unworthy of the love and affection of a perfect girl (talking about my wifeā€¦ making it clear in case she reads this šŸ˜…) I understand where heā€™s coming from. you see thereā€™s a voice inside your head that keeps telling you youā€™ll never be good enough, and let me tell youā€¦that fucking voice makes you act stupid, even say things that you donā€™t mean but mostly makes you so fucking scared and lonelyā€¦
I would say my favorite chapter was his interlude it really dived into his internal struggles and man did I feelā€¦ I donā€™t knowā€¦ understood?
I sympathized with him after all I was on his shoes onceā€¦ not that long ago honestly, so yeah, I sympathize with Yoongi, and I really like how your main character is trying her best to understand him, itā€™s nice to read about a girl that has that patience, determination and kindness, because let me tell you thereā€™s a lot of shitty people that donā€™t even try to understand the demons that their partners battle withā€¦ (Not talking about you dear wifeā€¦have to make it clear or she might cut my balls off) Moving on ā€¦probably thereā€™s a lot of shit that they, my man Yoongi and reader, will have to endure but hopefully they know that at the end itā€™s so fucking worth itā€¦
Shit, Your story hits really close to homeā€¦
I hope this makes sense, keep the good work, and yeah bye šŸ‘‹šŸ»
ā€”I donā€™t know how to name myself, Ki told me I had to use an emojiā€¦? I donā€™t know you can choose something if youā€™ll like.
P.S. Keep your imagination wild pleaseā€¦ kinda benefits meā€¦ if you know what I mean šŸ˜‰ (Sorry dear but itā€™s true)šŸ˜‚ āœŒšŸ»
Holy crap. I... I don't even know what to say? This is incredible feedback and I'm having a bit of an out of body experience right now wow! This is more than I could ever ask for, so thank you for taking the time to say all of these things (and for even reading in the first place!) All my love to you and your lovely wife who I am dubbing a queen already ahahahah. Thoughts and response under the readmore!
I started to read your story mainly out of curiosity, my wife likes to read a lot, on line and of line and Iā€™m always willing to listen to her rant about the characters or stories she reads, it makes her happy and thatā€™s the main goal am i right? so when she started to tell me about your story, first of all I was a bit shocked, itā€™s veryā€¦ risquĆ©šŸ˜‚ and I teased her because she was basically reading pornā€¦ šŸ˜‚ but then she told me how it developed, and I was even more intrigued so after I listened to her talk, and of course after a lot of teasing she told me ā€œshut the fuck off and read it, itā€™s goodā€ her exact fine wordsā€¦ so I did.
I will admit that there is definitely a lot of spice in here. But it's so much more than that, and I'm glad she was able to convey that to you in a very lovely way (her wording made me laugh out loud, incredible LOLL)
First of allā€¦ I understand tangerine man (Yoongi) as a man that once felt unworthy of the love and affection of a perfect girl (talking about my wifeā€¦ making it clear in case she reads this šŸ˜…) I understand where heā€™s coming from. you see thereā€™s a voice inside your head that keeps telling you youā€™ll never be good enough, and let me tell youā€¦that fucking voice makes you act stupid, even say things that you donā€™t mean but mostly makes you so fucking scared and lonelyā€¦
If you understand Yoongi in that way, I'm both proud as a writer but also quite sad as a person. Obviously I wish you never felt that way, but I've seen it so many times. Even I myself found myself thinking those thoughts and hearing that voice in my head - saying stupid things, acting out in ways that are just not good. It's a universal feeling but.. to hear that you connect with him? Damn. I truly don't have the words to describe everything I feel. (Also, "tangerine man" makes me so happy LOL)
I would say my favorite chapter was his interlude it really dived into his internal struggles and man did I feelā€¦ I donā€™t knowā€¦ understood?
Let me tell you about the interlude: it ripped me to shreds getting inside this man's head. It's dark in there, it's foggy and alarming. But there's also so much good in there - just like for you, too. He was being so protective, he was thinking about reader so much. If only he wasn't so horribly hard on himself.. But. You got out of that, and I know he can, as well.
I sympathized with him after all I was on his shoes onceā€¦ not that long ago honestly, so yeah, I sympathize with Yoongi, and I really like how your main character is trying her best to understand him, itā€™s nice to read about a girl that has that patience, determination and kindness, because let me tell you thereā€™s a lot of shitty people that donā€™t even try to understand the demons that their partners battle withā€¦ (Not talking about you dear wifeā€¦have to make it clear or she might cut my balls off) Moving on ā€¦probably thereā€™s a lot of shit that they, my man Yoongi and reader, will have to endure but hopefully they know that at the end itā€™s so fucking worth itā€¦
You're right about there being people out there that won't even try to understand. OR they give up after a few attempts and dub things not worth it. But if you find the right person, they are gonna stay and fight and that feeling of having someone there for you is indescribable. I bet your wife is fantastic just from how you talk about her! ARGH you're both so cool. And yes, it seems like things may be a constant battle even if they get better, but I believe in them. You're right, it really is so fucking worth it.
Shit, Your story hits really close to homeā€¦
Three Tangerines is a story about life. Humans just getting through despite all the shit that they go through. If it hits close to home? For anyone reading it? Just know that there is also a theme of hope here.
Ki is an expert on this blog already! I can give you the šŸ“– emoji (and oh trust me, there is so much more to.. explore with these two so look forward to more!)

I love how Ged started immediately disliking Jasper as soon as he met him. Understandable since the kid is kind of a prick but there was no hesitation. He just doesnā€™t like Jasper.

i just reread the all for the game series again (4th time through) and itā€™s the first time iā€™ve read it while identifying as aroace.
if youā€™ve ever read aftg you know it has issues, especially with ableism, but itā€™s still a comfort series for me. i read it for the first time at the age of 12. (i do not recommend reading it that early.) and although it definitely messed me up, i donā€™t regret reading it. even with its many faults it is probably the best found family story i have read. the main character is demirose and his ā€œlove interestā€ (i headcanon both of them as loveless, but idk how else to say that) does not show affection in typical ways. but they care for each other so much. romance is hardly present but friendship and protection (and in some cases love) are abundant.
as a heartless, lovequeer aroace this matters so much to me.

Hello writer šŸ“– here. Itā€™s been a minute..
I was talking to Ki last night and she mentioned you have been feeling under the weather. Iā€™m sorry to hear that. It has been a difficult time in our household as well. Many things going on..
I hope this message brings you at least a bit of a smile.
Alright.. here I go šŸ¤£
Ki was very sick (I know very dark way to start the message) after thanksgiving she had to be admitted in the emergency room, it was scary as fuck.. knowing that the love of your life might not make its .. pff.. yeah. But she did because sheā€™s strong like that..
Anyways the reasoning of my message to you is that during the time she was in the hospital I wasnā€™t able to stay with her 24/7 even if I wanted to I couldnā€™t, but you could. Whenever she was alone she would read your stories, particularly 3tan (Iā€™m not supposed to say this but she made some nurses hooked on tangerine man šŸ˜‚)
I wanted to thank you, for creating a safe space for everyone, an incredible world that made my wife feel accompanied even when I couldnā€™t be there and she was indeed alone.
Iā€™m not even jealous of Yoongi anymore.. šŸ˜‚
I know life is hectic, sometimes we go through really dark moments, really shitty moments.. but know this author.. you should be proud of the community, of your words, of your work. And Iā€™m thankful, really really thankful that your words kept the love of my life smiling..
I hope that knowing that at least can give you a smile.
Kind regards. Have a wonderful day. āœŒšŸ»
-šŸ“–
P.S. You donā€™t have to reply to this or repost it if itā€™s too much, this is mostly for you. Smile, be proud, and letā€™s keep this life rolling!
P.S.2 I know I ramble a lot, and that maybe my message doesnā€™t even makes sense. Sorry about that. šŸ˜…
Oh.. oh my goshšŸ„ŗ Book, this is quite something, and the first time I read this today I stopped what I was doing and sat there for a moment. Just. Thinking about life and purpose and direction, and how in my lowest moments of the past couple months, I was still with someone and telling them itā€™s okay. Thatā€™s not something Iā€™m ever gonna take for granted and Iā€™m just. Idk. Speechless?
Iā€™m glad Ki is all okay and that youā€™re both here, truly. And Iā€™m happy that 3tan was there for her when you couldnā€™t physically be present (because we know you were there in spiritšŸ¤) Thatā€™s comforting to me as an author to know and something that I will think about when Iā€™m feeling quite lonely and down myself.
Iā€™m happy that yā€™all are here (and now some nurses know about 3tan?? Oh god LMAOšŸ˜…) We built something really fcking special and I know thereā€™s no way I couldā€™ve done this on my own. Itā€™s a collective effort and everyone here should be just as proud. But yeah, Iā€™m glad everything is fine! Happy to hear from you again and I hope you two and the family have a wonderful holiday/new years seasonšŸ„³
Iā€™ll always be here. Or there. Whenever and wherever you need me to be. So will 3tan yoongi. and reader, and anyone else in these stories.
Thank you for reaching out. This made my whole day and I will cherish it for a long timešŸ„¹
