as a someone who writes ALOT (poems, scripts, lists, grants, etc.) and also likes attention, there is something almost gratifying about writing something good and then sharing it with no one. is this growth? unlikely lol

📝even though you kind of want to??? it’s good to keep some of that stuff to yourself. like those guys who think that never jacking off makes them more powerful or whatever.

⌨️ive been writing so much the last couple of weeks, but, for the first time in my life, I've been sharing it with friends and posting it on medium. god, it feels good for people you love to tell you you're good at something

📖Write every day. So no to other things in order to write.
Share what you write on here and everywhere else. Publish on a blog or a Substack, share links to your work. Don't heed the feedback all that much—good or bad. You know what's in you. Work the muscle of putting it in front of people.
Go to a public library and volunteer to start a writing workshop for an underserved group, like people facing homelessness. Write with them when they write.

☀️here are some things I've done in my 20s that were a blast:
- learned to fly a kite (flying a kite as an adult is the best - i recc doing it at the beach if you can manage it, more wind there)
- recreating one of the showstopper bakes from the Great British Bake Off (it absolutely sucked but was really fun haha who knew baking was an exact science?)
- bought some blank white shelves and invited all my friends over to paint them
- attend a workshop at the library (i went to one that taught me how to pickle vegetables!)
- make a perfect summer playlist, burn it on CDs, give it out to friends
- make a different kind of lemonade/iced tea every week (i really looked forward to opening my fridge every day when I was doing this)
- buy a book of poetry and spend so so so long going through the pages and illustrating the poem in the margins (or doodle whatever)
- find a local pizzeria/bar that does open mics and go listen to the performers with some friends (why not? pizza? music? and lots to talk about!)
- make shaved ice at home! (or home made ice cream if you're feeling particularly bold)
- go listen to your municipal band play at the park
- figure out whats in season in your region produce wise and challenge yourself to make dinner just from what you can find at a farmers market or something
