Hiatus!
I really, really hate to do this. However, I have about a month of school left which means a ton of final projects, tests, and exams coming up. On top of that, I’ve been working so I haven’t had much free time to do anything. The queue at this moment is empty and I haven’t been able to make any time to fill it.

bridgeinvisible asked: For the anon: Imaginary Girls by Nova Ren Suma, and anything by JD Salinger... That's all I can think of but I hope it helps. :)
carswinky asked: @your anon, I'm not sure exactly where it can be found but Kenneth Goldsmith wrote a rather long poem focusing on language. It's not a rhyming poem but it's nonetheless a poem. It's entitled MDCLXXXVI. I'm sure anything by Tolstoy would also be more focused on language than plot! Hope that helps :)

yourbrainmyappetizer asked: I highly recommend Alice I Have Been by Melanie Benjamin. It is great for anyone who likes Alice in Wonderland - the story follows Alice Liddel's life from the time she was a small girl up until she's 80 years old (using a mix of historical facts and literary license). VERY good story-telling!
