3 Finish what you’re writing. Whatever you have to do to finish it, finish it.

It’s great that you can listen and be a shoulder to someone, but what about when someone doesn’t need a shoulder. What if they need arms or something like that? You can’t just sit there and put everybody’s lives ahead of yours and think that counts as love. You just can’t. You have to do things.

WRITER’S BLOCK.

neil-gaiman:

I’ve seem to be hitting writer’s block far too often now. My grade in my creative writing class is suffering because i don’t turn in anything because i’m never really satisfied with anything i do. all my good ideas seem to turn into bad ones once i write it down. How do you get pass writers…

Writing is the hardest thing ever!
