Nerd Church - The Writer Diaries: Let Me Romanticise Writing, Dammit!

 


Title: Let Me Romanticise Writing, Dammit!


Every now and then, out there on the Interwebs, I come across someone who disapproves of the 'romanticisation' of writing.

Look, I never claimed to be a totally emotionally stable human being - not least because I'm not sure such a thing truly exists.

Nerd Church - To-Do List Struggles

My to-do isn't that long - at first glance.

But that's mostly because I only write down a few things that I need to prioritise and/or think I'm in danger of forgetting. 😅

My mental to-do list? Much, much, bigger.

Like... I expect a lot of myself.

Friday Fics Fix - And Now He's An Armadillo

 


'I still think we should try Khonshu, Marc. He’ll be here before long anyway, so…

Nope. He is not having the bird fix this. He will… sort it out. Somehow. Like a big boy.'

This is such a random story. 

- It made me smile, and I think we all could do with some more of that at the moment.
