Okay Maybe This Is A Me Thing, But Isnt One Of The BEST Writer Experiences Finding A Writing Piece That

okay maybe this is a me thing, but isn’t one of the BEST writer experiences finding a writing piece that you completely forgot about?? not the cringey type where you can see typos everywhere and a thousand broken rules, but a detached drabble that you penned/typed maybe two or three months ago — so small and insignificant, perhaps the start of a whole new story, that you have no clear memory of writing it — so you can see your writing from a richer, newer POV and you realise

“damn… why didn’t I finish this? how’s it gonna end?? why did I hate it so much???”
