John Morrison@beep Ethan, that’s nothing
@Localcelebrity the priest would seem to agree with you
“Flow is something the reader experiences, not the writer.”
Deeply grateful to Mandy for this post. https://aworkinglibrary.com/writing/your-labor-isnt-a-sign-of-defeat
(Also, it feels just so, so good when a friend shares something with you on their blog.)
Matthias Ott@beep Love it! ✨💩
@beep What also resonated with me a lot when it comes to feeling stuck were these two ideas:
– Lynda Barry about why liking your work or not is “none of your business”

– There is no bar (aka “We’re not shootin’ for the Pulitzer over here mmkay.”), by @chriscoyier

@matthiasott Oh those are both fantastic, Matthias. Thank you!
EthanC@beep Anne Lamott is pretty fantastic! Take her advice all the time.
Michel Bozgounov 🇺🇦 🇪🇺@beep (instead of a comment in your blog) I remember Bird By Bird, I read this book a while ago, and I agree with the author. In many cases, you just need a first draft! But you need to start writing.
Thank you for reminding me of this book. :)
