@ocean and if you have any interest in becoming a literary artist: a novelist, a poet, a blogger, a video game story designer, a singer-songwriter, *anything*, an elating realization for me was realizing just how LONG all my favorite writers practiced their writing in the form of journals, diaries, and letters, before even writing a draft, let along getting published. The way you create for yourself will inevitably become the way you create for others. And as with all creation, the most important part is to ACTUALLY DO IT
