The Future Kept

Can we normalise ‘I’m willing to work on that’ instead of ‘that’s just how I am’

Finding the will to live.

Aren’t you gay?

I like how this implies I did something heterosexual. If so, I apologize.

Sagittarius: [about the fire signs] We are sophisticated adults, okay?

Sagittarius: Just last week I purchased a vegetable.

“There’s a one in a million chance—“

“You’re a witch. Probability should be in your favor.”

“You didn’t let me finish. There’s a one in a million chance that I’ll even try.”

reasons to not quit writing:

your writing is a skill, not an inborn talent (unless, yeah, maybe it is). not everyone can do what you do and love

everyone says they want to write a book. everyone has what it takes to write a book. not everyone does it anyway. you be the small percentage of success you read about

your writing will always seem brickshit horrible because you wrote and read it a million times

you love this writing thingy. quitting it will be like cutting off your fingers one by one.

someone out there will want to read what you wrote.

someone out there wants to know what is on your mind. 

someone out there appreciates your art. they will share it with their friends. they will share it with their loved ones. they will share it with their future self because maybe what you wrote saved them.

if you give up now, you know you will just come back to it again, whether it’s years from now, months, or next week. you love writing, that’s why you planted the seed of thought that you are going to write this book, and whether you come back to it or not, your unwritten stories will come back to you.

You’re being chased by a vampire through the city, one hour before sunrise. You see a homeless person’s tent and dive in. You now have to convince the bewildered person inside, for one hour, to ignore the gorgeous, seductive vampire on the other side of the flaps trying to gain an invitation.
