[image description: a collage. Three lines of text over a grainy photo of bushes growing above a beach, and the ocean.

Text: the first thing you learn is how strong you can be if you have to / and the next thing you learn is how cold it can get at night / the first thing you learn will be the last thing to go

"But not yet, Please" from my debut poetry collection Clean Afternoon Love

[luna-azzurra]

Writer red flags that are actually just writer things: multiple abandoned documents with incredible first paragraphs and nothing else. A pinterest board for a story you haven't started. Knowing the backstory of every character in a wip that is twelve pages long. Crying about a fictional death you caused. Having strong opinions about someone else's fictional relationship. Starting a new project the second the current one gets hard. That last one is a red flag actually. We don't talk about that one.

writing advice: run through the rain, let the cold chill every part of you until you can't tell where the water ends and where you begin, run until the flaming pain in your legs warms everything else, run until the clouds part, run until you see the sun, and remember that you are alive now and always have been. then go home and write some words or something
