Writing is not always writing.
Writing is being on the train and mentally seeing your OCs stumble into other people, or flinching away from the germ-ridden handrails, or sleeping on each others’ shoulders.
Writing is hearing a song on the radio and watching one of your scenes play out to the lyrics.
Writing is laying on your floor or sitting by your computer and spending hours collaging newspaper clippings or pictures or people or plants together and making something that is completely, uniquely, your story.
Writing is drawing your characters in your notebooks, and making tea only your one, picky character would drink, and writing an open letter to all your characters just to remind them you love them.
Writing is moodboards, and playlists, and crafts, and asks, and prompts, and pictures, and memories, and you.
So never think that just because you’re not putting words on a page, you’re not a real writer. Writing is something that follows you everywhere, beyond the word document, and beyond the screen.
Because writing isn’t something you do. It’s something you are.
My brain when I’m in front of a blank page: I cannot write. I have never seen a word in my entire life. What the fuck even is a sentence?
My brain while I’m trying to fall asleep: I have ascended and become a literary god. I will now paint you a vivid daydream using the best descriptors and words that flow like fresh rainwater. Bet you wish you could write this all down, huh? Bet you’ll forget in the morning, huh? Bitch.
