RE: 3 reasons not to fear your writing haunts
I NEEDED THIS SO MUCH!!!
I was spooked.
This is the best description of what I let happen to me. I start overthinking things like this or just a word or comment that someone says (and sometimes it isn't even that someone said it to or about ME/my writing/work) and yet I let it spook me!
My writing haunts:
- Apparently morbid/sad/vengeful writing (freewrites brought this out, the morbid side surprised me a LOT)
- Erotica. Even in middle school, I wrote so many stories that included way too much of a sexual nature. My friends would ask me to tell them 'bedtime stories' of their favorite crush, etc. when they were over. I was the best 13 year old erotica storyteller... which is weird to say, but it was my 'thing'. I still love writing erotica, but I'm not sure what to do with it!
*I REALLY enjoy reading 'cheesy' historical romance and time travel. I let the thought of getting it 'wrong' or making mistakes stop me from trying and I'm realizing right this very moment that I need to rethink that.
As always, you are making me think and really dig into my brain. Thank you!!!
