And If My Thought-Dreams Could Be Seen, They’d Probably Put My Head in a Guillotine

How the fuck is everyone? I’m finally back in a writing groove. I’m only writing for an hour or so every day, but it’s just keeping the thread going that I find so helpful. It’s when I skip a few days or more that makes it so difficult to “get back in.” Kind of like working out. Exactly like working out. Only I hate it when people say that writing is a muscle or that you have to develop your writing muscle, but I’ll cave and say I think that’s probably true. On the other hand, I think my main motivation for writing is that I’m really unhappy/agitated if I’m not writing, I’m deeply compulsive, and it’s how I figure out who I am.

What motivates you to write?
