Writer


I am not a writer

I lack the very basic need to be consistent

I am unable to describe things vocal or written

I do not have any stories to tell

I put writing off most of the time till 3 in the morning

I am not a writer or a life saver or someone you should ever ask for relationship advice

I lack the ability to just work on one thing at once

I am convinced that doing a little of everything means it will get done eventually

I do not wish to spend my life on a book that will never be good enough to be published

I am not and will not ever be a person that can convince themselves that they are not a writer
