I love time loops. I’d love to write a story that utilizes them but I fear I wouldn’t add anything new to the sub genre. It’s just too perfect for themes involving grief and that’s my bread and butter.
Love a good grief.

self care is realizing I want to go back to school and actually taking steps towards doing so. I’ve spent the last four years talking myself out of it. I want what I want.

I feel like this edit is going insanely slow, but also I think I’m having fun? It’s hard not to be inpatient. I want it done but I want it good, I want to speed up but I’m immersed.
I am both grateful and frustrated.

man it’s so easy to get wrapped up in the metrics, writing is one of those things that is insanely numbers driven and I have to constantly remind myself that production comes in all shapes and sizes, that a value isn’t the value, etc.
