look…………….. write as much shitty fic as you want. nobody can stop you. you’re learning constantly and it’s better to write hackneyed implausible ridiculousness than it is to not write at all out of fear of fucking up. you’re good

There was an experiment a professor did. I think it was pottery students. He did an experiment of “quality” vs “quantity”. One half of the class he told; you have to make as many pots as possible. Good pots, bad pots, shitty pots, whatever. The more pots you make, the higher your grade.

The other half of the class were told, “you can make only one pot”. But that pot had to be perfect. The quality had to be high; the highest quality pot would get the best mark.

But when it came to the grading, they noticed something weird.

All the best quality pots were in the ‘quantity’ group.

The guys who were literally churning out pots, trying to make as many as possible, not concentrating on the quality. But every pot they made, made them better at making pots. By the end of the month (I think it was a month) - they had some pretty awesome pots coming out, because they enjoying finding all the ways and all the things they could do to make all their pots. Where as the ‘quality’ guys had spent their time reading up on pots, and technique, and researching and planning; which was all great but they’d had no further practice at actually making pots.

The best way to get really good at something, the only way to be really good at something, is to make lots of shitty attempts at that thing several of which will fail. If all you create are perfect things then you won’t improve, because how can you improve on perfect?

tl:dr MAKE YOUR SHITTY POTS.

AMEN this goes for anything too!!! drawing, painting, sewing, knitting you name it. Its so much better to just do the thing your working on, shitty or not it takes less of a toll on you to just finish a thing than to worry about fucking it up first time.

[clansocreations]

Fuck yeah! And even making something that has nothing to do with pots will help you make your pots. Because lots of different expiriences doing different stuffs will also help you make better stuff if that makes sense

My piece for @Helixel’s secret santa event! I got @mathildeperie and I decided to draw Haru! She actually also won my giveaway, but I decided instead of doing 2 mid drawings that I would pour my entire soul into one and I’m so happy I got to do that!

Was finally able to see my therapist again after... a while

I really don't think he was prepared for his patient to come back like : yeah, had a shitty year

Lost my brother to suicide this summer and then like a month or so after my nephew got killed in a car accident and he was a bit like a brother because he was close in age to me and often at home when I was a kid

And then when we thought things were better my mom had to get surgery for something and we were scared to lose her

He really was not ready :')
