Be strong. Live honorably and with dignity. When you don’t think you can, hold on.

I’ve been needing to hear this today so I think someone else might need to hear it too:

Your first draft, hell, even your first book is not going to be perfect.

You will gain experience as you continue to write more stories. You will write better stories. Your tenth story will be better than your first story.

That doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t publish your first story. Work hard. Give it your all. And publish it. You deserve to see the payoff of your first book, and more importantly, you deserve to gain the experience of publishing your first book.

It won’t be perfect, but your next book will be better because you learned from the first one.

I’m very pro-rereading books you loved as a child at different stages in your life

Man though you know what makes me sorta sad is when nerdy, “quiet” kids latch on to me during camp and they just talk and talk and talk about a thing they’re into (Skyrim, Pokemon, Harry Potter, Doctor Who, dinosaurs, whatever). And I see the kids just light up when they say something and I can chime in with an ‘oh hey, are you talking about [x]? I love that thing! Tell me more about it.’

Like, their parents will warn me ‘so-and-so is pretty quiet and hard to engage’ but no, man, just listen, your kid is so smart and so into This Thing, they’ll engage like fuck and talk your damn ear off it you let them. Frame it in their damn terms. Or! Just! Listen to them about their Thing! And they will engage with the rest of the material! Because they know you care about them! Amazing!!!

This is because I don't see enough posts about this but:

•be patient with people who stutter (especially when you see they’re trying) •don’t finish their sentence for them unless you guys have talked about it and said that it’s okay •don’t laugh or imitate the stutter •don’t roll your eyes •if you want to know if they have one, politely ask I wanted to make this because of all the stuff I see on tumblr I never see posts about stuttering. I have one and it’s really shitty. So yeah
