I think the best kind of writing is one where the reader is like damn, I wanna create something that makes others feel like how I’m feeling right now. 

Good writing, it politely knocks on your door and introduces itself to you like a welcome guest and after it leaves you are forever nostalgic for that fateful encounter you once had but cannot replicate.

Which is good, but…

The best writing is the kind that kicks your door down, leaves you winded and steals your chickens tauntingly as it leaves. It makes you want to go to your neighbors and friends and scream about them, because how dare they make me feel things, dammit? and leaves you heaving and lurching for more, tempting you into trying out some chicken stealing for yourself.

Good writing is complete in itself. But, the best kind of writing inspires and leaves behind a ripple-effect of creation that makes it seem like it was never really gone.

The aftermath of bearing witness to the best kind of writing is an act of creation itself. The best kind of writing makes its audience a verb, a force, a creator.

That.

That is the kind of writing I wanna do.

ATTN: FIT FAM

While this has mostly morphed into a camp and nature aesthetic blog (when I bother updating it), I’m back on the fitblr train. Follow me over there for all of that.

One of these days I’ll remember to update regularly.

Apparently, the last time I said I was back wasn’t actually me being back. 

The only major update I have is that I moved. 

I’m so boring. 

Returning to my regularly scheduled radio silence/occasional aesthetic posts now.

I continue to be shit at updates.

My bad, y’all. 

I’ve been in not the best place the last few months. Nothing’s terribly wrong, but nothing’s exactly right. 

I’m trying to fix it, but it’s slow going. 

I hope you’re all doing well. 

I love you.
