Meanwhile At The PB Emergency Meeting...

Everyone who gets like really into Greek mythology either ends up worshipping the gods, studying classics, gay, or somehow all three at once

Some of us have weak hearts, okay! Haha, I know I'll be dead after Estela's day! 😱

Hey just wanted to check in to see if your still alive after Kenjkat's Becca pic. :DDD

Yes Anon I am still alive, thank you for your concern and checking in with me 😂 @kenjkats hasn’t killed me off yet, if I can survive Becca then I should be fine.

I had a baby with Shale in camp and I cried.

Gee, I wonder why 😅

Just like old times

How To Fall In Love With Writing

Some of us are new, some of us are in a rough patch, but we all want to write, so here’s how to fall in love with it, for the first time or all over again.

Build a personal relationship with it. Make it a part of your lifestyle and your being. Start a journal or simply start writing something every day. It can be small, like a poem, a short journal entry, a description of what you did that day, a rant, a confession, anything you want. Just get used to depending on writing.

Turn everything you write into something beautiful, even if it’s your grocery list. Write in your nicest handwriting, write deep and interesting descriptions of everything around you, turn the world around you into poetry. It changes your mindset and that is one of the biggest parts of being a writer.

Involve the people you care about. Have your friends, partner, collegues, family, etc. read your work and help to encourage you. If your writing is not only a positive in yours, but your loved ones’ lives, it adds that extra bit of motivation as well.

Turn it into a routine. Make time every day to write and devote your attention to it. It’s important to let go of everything around you for even only a few minutes a day and enjoy yourself while you write. Do it for 10 minutes before you go to sleep, when you wake up, when you’re stuck in a cab, when you’re on the bus ride home, when you’re cooking dinner, etc.

Think of it as a hobby, and not a task on your to-do list. If you forget to write one day because of your busy schedule or because you’re just too tired, don’t be upset. It’s a hobby, and there is nothing really tying you to it except yourself, and you will always come first. Don’t force yourself to write when you don’t have it in you.

Make it a therapeutic experience. Light some candles, make some tea, get some chocolate, lay in bed with your laptop and your favorite record playing. If every time you write is a treat, then you’ll want to do it more. 

Make writing your escape from the stresses of your life. Writing is a task in which you clear your mind and go somewhere else. It’s like reading, but you’re controlling what happens and when.
