Sitemap - 2025 - Writing for Weird Times by Amy Guth

Getting loud

Our own narratives

Oh to have this vocabulary at 12

Hiding for safety

Weird myths

Your own boundaries

Turns out, that is not your fn problem at all

Screw agreeableness

On writing and being read

Who benefits from your silence?

Standing ground

But that was before!

Relatable like professional

Be nice and surrender your power, mmkay?

This year's birthday report

Life-changing moments that look like nothing

Big time "screw it" energy

Change

Let it be unhinged af

Things you won’t forget

Obligation

Not your idea

Y’all don’t want me to name these names

Effort v. outcome

Stuff we did then stopped

Life-changing technology

Eff fear

Trust

Reader trust

Asking big questions

The personal is political so try this

Things we had to learn

How credibility is learned

I can’t see you/you can’t see me

Changing your mind

Your central preoccupations

Lived experience

Middle clarity

Once more with feeling

We did what we could

Who said so?

The secret history of that one thing

Body-memory

The art that changed you

Not your win to want

There is superstition

Scars

The truth might also wreck things

Fish out of water

Accidental greatness

Strings attached

Places, but after the fact

Not just wrong but harmful

Money

Scarcity is a whole thing

The body knows

Discomfort doesn't have to get resolved

Ways we tone down for safety

I mean, we could start with trust issues

I was speaking

How about you decide that for yourself

Receiving apologies

Loyalty to the past self

The way we tell our stories

Public/private

No way but also please

Eff permission

Let this one piss you off

What matters to you today

Suddenly in Berlin

Pattern recognition

Secret bats (or secret whatever)

What stories can we tell?

Off the record of your life

That about killed me

Rules, schmules

I'm done explaining this and you are too

Objectivity v human realness

Not funny!

Honesty? Legibly? Both?

Not unresolved, just still working on it

Underestimate at your own risk

Yes but actually no way in the world

Saying it anyway, or not

Unspoken truths

Power

So unprofessional

Not invited

Outgrowing our roles

Dumb like a fox

Niche

Witness to the world

Incomplete believing

Sorry not sorry

Not yours to tell

They didn’t know

What’s the real question?

I thought there would be more quicksand, tbh

Neutrality

Too soon!

When does writing start

The anti-gaslighting

Testing assumptions

Not what I meant!

Silence as agreement

Over-explaining like whoa

Cultural tells

Evidence of truth

What would you have not believed?

Releasing
