That’s amazing. I really need to get involved in real world connections. Living in an out of the way piece of real estate in New Mexico, my writing is pure imagination and fantasy because--at the end of the writing day--me and my invisable writing friends and muses ( well, invisable to everyone but me), write...alone. We face procrastination, pure laziness, and at times--boredom.
At times, I fall in bed, discouraged by a missing piece of prose only to awake to find those wonderful invisible partners have found the answer! However, by the end of the writing week, we (me and my imaginary cohorts) manage to be veeeery close to our averaged daily desired word count.
Thanks for this exciting slice of memoir as it was truly inspiring. I will relay this as my invisible cohorts are taking their siesta. I took a writing break to read a post...glad it was this one!
I hear you. I was writing pretty much alone for many years too. Keep pushing along and I'm sure you're going to have some exciting moments ahead. Not sure if you attend writing conventions, but those can be a great way to network and lead to these sorts of excursions. I was quite nervous myself in the beginning to do such things, but the environments are usually very friendly and refreshing. Good luck to you!
Thank you for being you and being awesome! Reading literally saved my life more than once and I absolutely love your thoughts on AI! How right you are, art isn't always supposed to be easy... Sometimes it's the blood, sweat, tears, and jizz that bring out a true masterpiece.
