Are you struggling with writing? Have a prompt but don't know where to go?
I found this link and thought it was pretty great. Let us know what you think of it?
What did you think of the quote? I actually found it really inspiring. It's true, I don't end up hating everything I write, and the key is to keep writing.

Also, the more you write, the more you can see your progress, which is really motivating (for me, at least).
It's always easier to edit rubbish words than write new ones on a blank page. Words are words!

I want to keep writing - even if I don't publish something I wrote right away - b/c I need to stay into the hang of things.
Thanks for your comment!
