Why is it so easy to write midnight letters to people who will never read them? I’ll fill 1000 notebooks this way…
unsentletters - oh, how i do this in my mind constantly. i just never write any of them down. and all the words linger in my conscious and unconscious.

“ My stranger on a train. I make up stories about you as we click-clack across the city, pulses of blood along veins of industry and commerce. One huge beating, pumping city and you and I are single celled. Red blood going in. Blue blood coming out at 5:30pm. How was your day? Do you enjoy what you do? Do you pretend to enjoy what you do? Who do you love? Do they kiss the sweat from your forehead? Do they whisper in your ear? How do you take your coffee?
This is my stop. I’ll see you tomorrow.
A.C. Crispin: 6 ways to increase your writing productivity
1. Write something EVERY DAY.
2. NEVER end your writing for the day by completing a scene or a chapter.
3. When you’re feeling unsure about what to do next, RE-READ and EDIT.
4. If you’re genuinely blocked, delete the last five pages of your story and then rewrite them, polishing and editing as you go.
5. Review your synopsis.
6. Go elsewhere to write (coffeeshop, library, etc.).
i hate shoes, too. i’d rather be barefoot. one summer, my cousin and i stayed up at her mom’s cabin in northern california in the woods. we ran around for three months with no shoes on. we called it having “country feet”; where you got so tough that you couldn’t even feel it when you stepped on sharp rocks. i miss her. that summer was fun. :D
