Writing fanfic

Mixing tenses

Losing focus

Doubting myself as a writer and a human being

every single one of these has been me in the last thirty minutes

Procrastinating

Editing a manuscript

Writing the same sentence over and over

Crying into my tea

Finding plot holes

Forgetting words

It’s an awful truth that suffering can deepen us, give a greater luster to our colors, a richer resonance to our words. That is, if it doesn’t destroy us, if it doesn’t burn away the optimism and the spirit, the capacity for visions, and the respect for simple yet indispensable things.
