Explore and experiment. Challenge yourself. Go down paths that could be dead ends. Take time for silence and day dreaming and let your unconscious mind work. Read widely. Dabble in other mediums and let the alternate form inspire your process.

Bad news, everyone - I've been consulting the oracle and it's looking increasingly like life is short and happiness is rare; we may need to take the chance of being wrong and destroying everything in order to change our lives for the better.

anyway i really loved the movie i thought it was beautiful meditation on life as a creator and what happens to people who can only really express themselves through art. yes self indulgent but i say go for it. LOVE IT when creators self indulge to say 'this story is important and i am important too'

i think if you ride public transit enough you learn that most weird behavior is not dangerous, and conversely i think driving a car teaches you that everyone is trying to kill you at all times

there is a tendency among those invested in ‘higher’ forms of art to view art that aims to give its audience pleasure, especially sexual pleasure, as inherently suspicious, and this seems to me to be equally conservative impulse.

did you enjoy creating it? did you have fun? does it make you happy thinking about it and sharing it? then that's it. you did it. you found the secret sauce. "was that a waste of time?" of course not, fuckface. expressing yourself creatively is always worthwhile. you're doing great

Paraphrasing an instructor when I say: if you can't write, revise. If you can't revise, research. If you can't research, read.

It's all part of the process!
There will never be a good time to write. Life won't stop until you're dead and then you really can't write. Do it now.
