Upsettlingly, in order to finish writing my book, I have to actually write the rest of my book.

How to write: Stop not writing. Keep your butt in the chair. Write really bad small sections of the whole—passages, moments, episodes, memories—til you have an incredibly shitty 1st draft. Then take out the boring parts, the lies and pretensions. Then write a better 2nd draft.

I know it may not seem like it sometimes, but if you’re a writer, painter, sculptor, comedian, DM/GM, craftsperson, etc…
You’re an artist. Even if you think your work is “bad,” it’s still art, and that act of creation is never a waste.

If your bookshelf doesn't have a cobweb-covered book that opens a hidden door when pulled, then what's the point of anything really?

Reading books is probably one of the safest ways to spend your time unlike bungee jumping or parachuting.

I love when I’m starting to write a book and my brain knows how I’d like the beginning and end to be, but the middle is always the biggest surprise

It’s easy to look down on someone’s work until you try your hand at their craft.
I started trying to plot a novel last year. Now I am in awe of anyone who ever finished writing a novel. Like so much respect. I don’t need to know what’s in it. It’s already a miracle.

Because true belonging only happens when we present our authentic, imperfect selves to the world, our sense of belonging can never be greater than our level of self-acceptance.
