What's the first thing your main character thinks of when they wake up?

Laurie has a lot to say about art. Theo likes to talk about 20th century literature. They could both go on and on about music from the 70s-90s.

I think if you use gen ai, you should be sentenced to stand on a stage and have writers/artists pelt you with rotten tomatoes while Steve from Blues Clues tells you how disappointed he is in you, oh and every tomato that hits you drains your company's stock closer to bankruptcy.

Capitalism wants us productive. Art reminds us to be present. Capitalism wants content. Art wants meaning. Capitalism isolates. Art connects. Even when made in private, even when it never leaves your notebook, art is still a way back to yourself. Above all, art connects us to the spirit of creation.

shout out to all the writers and artists who take forever to finish something. I get it, bro. I take a long time too. but your worth as a writer/artist isn't built upon production. so just keep striding it out. keep taking those steps. we each have our own race track. we'll get to the finish line

just an FYI, when I say “my writing” there's: the writing I publicly share, then there's the writing I keep in my folders, and then there's the earth's molten core, and below THAT there's the "writing" that exists only in cool scenes I imagine in the format of a movie while I fall asleep every night

Writing prompt: Your character, desperate for a particular medication, arrives at the pharmacy just as the pharmacist is locking up for the night. What do they do? Who is the prescription for and what does it treat?

Laurie has never told anyone what happened at home the summer before he ran away. Theo doesn’t talk about what happened to his dad.

Laurie: Joan Jett costume - a leather jacket, chunky belt, combat boots, teased hair, thick eyeliner.
Theo: the most he'll do is wear a sweater with a jack o' lantern on it.
