"Sometimes, you can be a bit less mean to yourself and just do the things you enjoy without the paralysing perfectionism or overwhelming ambition or gut-wrenching fear.
It doesn’t matter if you’ve hit your January word count goal or kept up with the courses or read your TBR pile or written your opus. What matters is that you show up, that every time you fall you dust yourself off, slap on a pair of tight leather chaps and get back on that damn horse."

“Writing is our essential gesture towards humanity”.

~ James Byrne

Let’s be as human as we goddam can.

#WHQ #Quote #JamesByrne

"The writing of stories, the telling of stories, the dissemination of stories, the sharing and togetherness and humanness of stories - is not a frivolous act in the face of multiple global crises. It is a celebration of the most basic human thing that we have and an affirmation of our shared humanity."

"Faced with existential crisis after existential crisis, writing stories can feel self-indulgent and futile. Through chucking as much confusing, outrageous, disgusting shit at you as possible until it sticks and you are so overwhelmed, so covered in metaphorical political faeces, that you cannot do one single thing.

That is why every act of defiance, no matter how small, is necessary. It’s why every act of friction is important. And your stories are defiant."

2- The #WHQ fight lasted 40mn with no rule checking vs 35mn with some rule checking and table consulting for #2HDC.
The WHQ was rather boring. The need for lots of littele dice to mark wounds was tedious.
The 2HDC was quite dynamic thanks to the use of Heroic Fight rules from Warriors Heroes Legends (fully compatible with 2HDC).
