Creator Journals 9/15/25
I don’t feel like writing today. I’m kind of depressed. I went for a walk with my wife and got some boba tea. That made me feel just a little bit more like writing. I revised a few pages and added a new scene, but that’s enough for today. I think I’m experiencing some degree of burnout.
Writing is hard, ya’ll. I wrote a whole book and now I still have to revise it. Once I revise it, there’s still a chance very few people will read it. Usually, I’m kind of at peace with the process, but today I feel fed up. I wish that writing wasn’t such a one-way process. I wish I got more back in return.
You can’t be there reading it with your readers. All you get is the little bit of feedback they give, and the fulfillment that the process itself brings.
Welcome to my creation journal. Creation is a scam.
Whatever, man. I’m just ranting.
Today’s writing tip: Know what you’re getting into before you start writing. Enjoy the process.
