the problem with being creative is that you start to feel very guilty when you haven’t created anything in a while

It's funny how a silly fictional character can come into your life and then take over your entire brain chemistry

wheres your whimsy. wheres your fucking whimsy

I know that its not actually that hard to learn to draw. or paint. or cook. or learn to speak a new language. or code. or any of a myriad of other possible skills or hobbies. but at some point you need to pick some single digit number of those ten thousand things that anyone can do, and to everything else say "i have other priorities" because otherwise you will never do any of them.

and so i think when people say "i wish i could..." they usually don't believe that they couldn't do it if they really tried, or even that they've overestimated the difficulty of doing so. I think what they're really wishing for is that time and energy were not finite quantities and that everything that was worth doing could also be done. because it's cosmically unfair that that isn't so.

I really have got to post more pictures of my cat here. y'know. as a treat. to me (and to y'all, but mostly to me because I love showing her off and she photographs so well)

[ofstormsandfire]

I'm missing my cat (she's fine she's just at home and I am Not at home) so have a picture of miss muffin when she was significantly more baby being utterly YOINKED.

There's a version of the "don't go grocery shopping while hungry" rule specifically for writers where you should never under any circumstances be allowed to touch your draft within 3 hours of reading a really good story. Because sometimes when you read something great your head goes "fuck this is so much better than my stuff I should make that more like THIS instead!" Look at me. That's the devil talking and you should close the document NOW.

You should always strive to give your followers an extremely warped impression of your favorite media

The thing people don’t realize about writing is that time spent just staring out the window is CRITICAL
