So the way writing works in my life is in cycles. I get depressed, and keep sinking until I start writing. It lifts me up until I stop being depressed, at which point I stop writing. Once I stop writing, I slip back into depression. Had I more insight and more perspective, I would just write every single day and avoid the mass of depression. Granted, people get depressed on a regular basis, and you can't dodge it. Still, the writing might stave off so much of it.
I will say, more often than not, Writ isn't enough. A lot of the time, it's just a half-assed diary that I put up because I feel compelled to. Except, lately, I haven't felt compelled. Right now, there's nothing new I can add here that's of any worth. Will that stop me from posting? No, but it severely curtails the frequency of posts.
I think I want to tell a story. That's all I ever really wanted to do. Realistically, it's not something I'll ever be able to make a living off of. Probabilistically, what'll end up happening is that someday (somehow, someway, somehope), I'll get married, and have kids, and they'll be the ones I tell my stories. And they won't laugh. Well, they will, but they won't laugh at me.
