And not just for writers and artists.

And not just for writers and artists.

Yes! It's just great observations about life.

I like this about creating:


The question every young writer asks is: “What should I write?”

And the cliched answer is, “Write what you know.”

This advice always leads to terrible stories in which nothing interesting happens.

The best advice is not to write what you know, it’s write what you *like*.

"There’s this very real thing that runs rampant in educated people. It’s called imposter syndrome. The clinical definition is a “psychological phenomenon in which people are unable to internalize their accomplishments.” It means that you feel like a phony, like you’re just winging it, that you really don’t have any idea what you’re doing."

Yep!

When writing and creating...USE YOUR HANDS.

*forehead smack*

WOW.

*Slides the quill out from my toes* ... Hands, YES! This is going to be SO much better!

and less embarrassing "ink stained socks moments" on wash day are a bonus too!

Great article...thanks for sharing.

A million C_i_C's with a million quills would eventually write Toe Have and Have Not.
