tho u feel stuck and not good abt ur writing right now, i just wanted to remind u that u write beautifully. ur fics have moved me. AND many other people. maybe this a signal for u to take a break and try to detach urself from writing. it will come back eventually. maybe that will be tmrw. or maybe it will be in 2 weeks. try to be patient and focus on other things that bring u joy. or bitch abt it here. take care darling <3

thank you lovely!! maybe you're right it's just difficult bcs writing has been such a fun escape for me during the last year so the fact that i'm hitting a wall with it is. very frustrating </3 but i have spent the evening cross stitching and watching brooklyn 99 so i'm trying to put less pressure on myself <33

#ask #i think it also. really doesn't help that at work recently i've had a piece of writing i spent literal Months editing and refining #torn to pieces and really brutally commented upon in the past week by higher ups who genuinely have no business being involved in my report #for Political Reasons Outside Of My Control it's happened specifically only to me and nobody else #and a project that was specifically designed for people of my level to build their confidence leading projects #has basically just led to me having my sense of pride in my work and faith in my own ability unilaterally destroyed. lol #even though academic writing is something i've always been good at. now i can't even write basic sentences without seeking reassurance #so i think it's maybe spilling over into like. my creative writing #which really really sucks. i've been having a really bad time at work which is so sad because i genuinely loved my job until 2 months ago #so i guess all my feelings Make Sense. it just feels really unfair that something that's been making me so miserable #is now like. taking away something i really enjoy and get a lot of fulfilment from </3 #anyway thank you so much sweetheart <333 #personal
