Reminder: Someone needs to hear your story. Don’t let self-doubt keep them from reading it.
Writing tip: End your writing sessions mid-sentence. It makes it easier to pick up where you left off.
Me: I should be writing Also me: Spends an hour researching how long it takes to die from a paper cut.
Brainstorming dialogue at night=Perfect. Trying to write it the next morning=Absolute nonsense.
