28 Thoughts Everyone Has While Trying To Write
Pennington Public Library

Let me tell you something you'll probably say is the most obvious thing in the world: writing is hard. It doesn't matter how good you are, sitting down to write can be one of the most difficult things in the world. And sitting down to write something you're actually happy with is even harder. I can write and rewrite a piece a thousand times over and never fully be happy with it. Or I can write something all in one go and think I've just won the Nobel Prize (ha!). You never really know. Writing is an emotional rollercoaster: a huge, unpredictable, uproar of feelings you can't quite seem to control as you try to spit them out into one page.

Every writer has their own process for dealing with this, but here is a general idea of the thought process that goes through our minds (at least mine, like, every day) while we're writing.


1. Okay, lets do this.

Because actually getting yourself to the computer is, like, half the process.

2. How long is it going to take me to actually come up with an idea?
