This is for any writer currently struggling with self worth, Burn out, transitions, or just generally feeling bad.   Do not give up because it feels like you're screaming into a void. Do not go gently into that cold night because you feel like none of it matters and that you feel like everything you do is a failure.   Do not give in because you see others resting in shade that makes you feel unworthy or inferior. Do not reduce yourself to make because you feel small.   Write not for the collective but write because it's your expression of self. Write to free yourself. write because of your love, and that's the thing. keep loving and keep writing despite all of it because at the end of the day, no one is gonna care about what you care about more than you.   it will get lonely it will be hard. It will feel like no one understands or wants anything of substance from you, but you have to keep going; you have to keep fighting because if you don't who will?
