M's Media Menagerie
Thoughtful Dumping Grounds
Trope: Accidentally in Charge
Through no fault of their own, the main character has been placed in charge of a group of people who admire and may even worship them. The main character typically tries to act in the best interest of everyone around them, showing a facade of competence and mastery in order to live up to expectations, but suffer from imposter syndrome otherwise.
Welcome to the Menagerie.
Here is where M logs their media activity. Partly because Goodreads is forgettable and keeping physical logs is harder. Sometimes M writes a lot. Sometimes M doesn’t write enough. It doesn’t matter. This is just a for-fun little blog so that M can remember what they thought about whatever they watched or read or played or. Whatever.
What is M?
I read. Voraciously. I have subscriptions to those book things on digital retailers. I consume books at nearly all hours. The hours I don’t spend reading? I’m writing. I’m drawing. I have a problem. I have a problem in that I love to read things that are in the same vein repeatedly. Book journals don’t work and as much as I text my friends screenshots of book passages, it doesn’t scratch the itch. Now I’m going to be doing… tiny… tiny book reports.
