There'll likely be a chapter tomorrow and you have @wonderlandmind4 to thank for that, both for beta-ing for me and for smacking my really really bad imposter syndrome voice over the head with a rolled-up newspaper until it was not so loud, because damn, have I been deep in it and worried about finally posting again.

#the red thread #i literally do not have words for how deep in an imposter-syndrome anxiety hole i've been for the past few months #i have been convinced everything i wrote since covid was stupid or bad and i'd get nothing but 'pasta what happened this is shit' comments #because all i was told before posting trt for the first time was. well. that it was a shit idea and everyone would hate it #and i guess struggling with the words/brain fog put me back there #i could see *nothing* but bad every time i went over the new chapter(s)#i think sometimes you need a good friend to hit that voice over the head and then take the good parts and hold them up in front of you
