Confession: right now I'm in a bit of a slump. I'm struggling with writing consistently every day, I'm struggling with discouragement, I'm struggling with feeling like a hack.
I will also freely admit that I experience a lot of wildly fluctuating emotions, so ... this is nothing new.
But I just read this marvelous article by Susan Kaye Quinn on Four Nasty Lies We Tell Ourselves About Writing, and it was like getting a good kick in the seat of the pants. Well, in a comforting way.
It was so good I wanted to share it.
Do you ever tell yourself any of these lies? I've told myself every single one at some point.
And they are just. not. true.
