Friendly reminder that writing is a skill and it's okay to practise.
There's absolutely no rule that says every piece of writing needs to be perfect or needs to be part of a story or needs to be polished up and posted on the web for all to see.
Assuming that everything you write (or draw or create in any other way) has to be "good enough" to share can really fuck you up. Do it for fun, do it for practice, do it for the feral friends who will love it even when it's shit. It's okay to make complete bullshit sometimes.
Sometimes you'll write something only to go back later and realise it's not complete bullshit, and actually it's worth polishing up into something worth posting. Sometimes it will be complete tosh you want to make sure no one but you ever sees.
Both those outcomes are okay. Both those outcomes are practice.
Skill takes practice.
