Cards Against Humanity Pays You to Give a Shit

Didn't vote in 2020? Cards Against Humanity will pay you to apologize.

This is the most chaotic good thing I’ve ever seen

Sometimes, "Write for yourself," means that you have to stop waiting for someone else to convince you that your work has value worth sharing before you believe in that value for yourself.

Write for yourself because you believe you have a story worth being told, not because you are hoping that someone else will agree with you after the story is done.

It means worry about what other people will think about your story after you've written it, but you have to decide you have something worth writing first.

The only definite guarantee is that no one will ever think anything of the story you gave up on before it was ever put down on a page.

"This is why I believe it is strictly immoral to write good vs. evil narratives, as these type of stories are all objectively harmful, promote black and white thinking, and lack any redeeming qualities."

Turns out maybe the one who lacked nuance was the one writing the blog about nuance in stories the whole time.

6.5k into next chapter of the Groundhog Day AU, and I feel like I am at the same editing stage as the 5k word point of Ch. 2. Y'know, the chapter that doubled in word count from that stage of editing and became a 10k word chapter by the time it was posted...

I have already cut this chapter in half and added a whole new chapter to the chapter count, it had better not become a 12k word chapter anyway.
