Have I moved somewhere where strangers really like to 'good morning' each other, OR am I now middle-aged enough to participate? Either way, here for it.
I thought a #creativewriting MA would mean using my brain, talking about ideas and making art. Turns out it's mostly managing other people's emotions and letting ourselves off the hook.
Keep writing. When no one cares, persist. When things appear to be crumbling, keep at it. When it's difficult, push through. When you feel alone, listen to the stories in your blood. Just write. The world needs you to tell your truth through your words.
The challenge is working out what NOT to write about, because when it's too big, nothing gets written. Trying to chart a way through with lots of 'what if?' questions #ThisWritingLife
