Clear water in Venice’s canals.

Dolphins near Sardinian harbours.

Ducks in Rome’s fountains.

Nature can still heal if we give it a fucking chance to.

“if no art makes you feel anything, make your own art and feel something” is too raw of a line to have come from a jenna marbles video of her painting a rainbow/polka dot seahorse saying “it’s seahorse time” on a denim jacket

Shia LeBeouf in his Hot Ones interview: “Anything that makes you feel something is art.”

“There have been times, lately, when I dearly wished that I could change the past. Well, I can’t, but I can change the present, so that when it becomes the past it will turn out to be a past worth having.”

— Terry Pratchett, I Shall Wear Midnight

I may not be living in the seventies with my Rock and Roll gods, and I may not be living in the far future, exploring the beaches and mountains of Proxima Centauri, but I am living in the same era as Brandon Sanderson and Patrick Rothfuss, and I am perfectly content with that.

An unpopular opinion about writing.

I used to devour books about creative writing and how to be an author 101. I read every single one I could buy at Books A Million. I checked out every single one I could get at the local library. I followed blogs, read articles, listened to podcasts.

And you know what I think of all of that now? Fuck it. I’m a writing anarchist now. No rules, no idols, no masters.

The publishing industry took a fundamental human experience–telling stories–and turned it into a cesspit of gatekeeping and capitalism, and that just chaps my ass, so I no longer care about it and its conventions in the absolute slightest.

Write what you want, how you want. Fuck anyone who tells you different. ‘S long as you’re not being a bigot and reinforcing hatred, it does not matter what anyone thinks–if they don’t like it, well, it’s not for them.

“But you should learn the rules before breaking them!”

Do you think the first cavemen telling stories around a campfire gave two shits about the rules of writing? Writing isn’t some weird highbrow intellectuals-only club. Storytelling is just what we as humans do.

So get out there and do it your way, however you want, no arbitrary rules handed down from people who don’t even know you or your story.

As a PhD in Literature, I can confirm that this is 100% accurate.

i hate when rich people condescend with the whole 'money can't buy happiness' argument like listen. just because buying your fourth car didn't fill the void in your deluded disconnected-from-reality life doesn't mean not having to worry about food/ bills/medicine wouldn't greatly improve the mental health of literally everyone else on the planet
