to you, it's a shitty sentence. to some random bitch 500 miles away, it's a fire line that'll haunt them for the next 17 years.

you don't know how impactful your writing is because it's been in your brain for far too long now. you've stared at it for hours and repeated "this sucks" over and over again to the point that you killed your capacity to feel anything about your work.

but trust me, once you get your shit out there, someone's gonna go over that paragraph you hate and go "jesus fucking christ" and put the book down to have an existential crisis.

another note: trash now could be treasure for your FUTURE SELF. Do you know how many times I wrote something, thought it was mid to garbage, only to discover it was some of my favorite writing that I had ever done?

When you are a writer, you are not a reader. You see all the threads of fabric holding your story together and not the masterpiece. While you are trying to reword a sentence for a 10th time, someone else read the first try and thought it was fine. I promise you that your writing is better than you think it is, and even if you never grow to like it it will teach you so much. Keep going even when writing feels shitty because you will look back and think you were boo boo the fool for feeling discouraged about a good story.

you are an R L Stein protagonist my friend

fear of being upside down when i was a kid i would get on my hands and knees and look up at the ceiling or sky and think wow what if gravity just stopped working. lol. vanessa carlton singing if i could fall into the sky spikes anxiety in the part of my brain that is still like 6 years old
