You gotta write for funsies sometimes. Everything doesn’t have to be groundbreaking. Like. Who cares if it’s a little silly it is made out of love

it’s okay:
- to be proud of your writing
- to boast about your writing
- to abandon/start new WIPs on a whim, even if you’ve already got projects that need to be worked on
- to have a bad day of writing
- to not want to share your writing with anyone
- to not want constructive criticism
- to fail and start again
- to succeed (achievements should be celebrated)
- to write things because it’s fun (even if it’s not your forte)
- to write things that are purely meant to be enjoyable, not everything has to come with a complex plot that deconstructs society as we know it
- to not like everything you’ve ever written

Packed up 11 boxes of penguin today. 334 pounds total
To clarify it was boxes of books from Penguin Random House. I did not shove 334 pounds of antarctic seabird into boxes at my job
Packed 6 boxes of Simon today. Fucker didn’t stand a chance
And Shuster just stood there and did nothing

2036.
soft rain
outside the open window
a bird somewhere close
complaining
my cat wrestling
her mouse toy
in the arm chair
she clawed until
it was hers alone
and the weight is still there
but there’s less of it -
