It’s Wednesday. Do you know what that means? Time for some random inspiration! Today’s quote comes from Robert Louis Stevenson.
I find a hard to swallow truth in these words. I think that’s why I’m so hard on my writing. It doesn’t always match what I was going for. It may still be good/decent/great, but it isn’t quite what I had hoped for. Sometimes it’s better than I’d hoped for, but it’s often hard to see that when you don’t quite hit the mark you were going for. But that shouldn’t matter. As the saying goes, “You only fail when you don’t try.” Keep churning out those stories, friends. Don’t let a little thing like writing something you didn’t mean to say get in the way. That’s what editing is for!

It’s funny, we both feel the exact same way about our writing. It doesn’t stop me from writing, but it makes me very uncertain when I don’t say what I want to.

We seem to be more and more similar all the time. If I didn’t know better I’d swear we were twins separated at birth lol

Yea. I mean aside from a few things like gender and the like, I agree. Haha.

yeah, I guess the gender thing would be enough to throw a wrench in that whole theory, wouldn’t it?
