I’ve said in the previous essay that I’ve started regularly publishing again, but I’ve omitted the details: I’ve made a 1000€ bet with a friend that I’m going to publish every week.
I liked how you acknowledged that it’s not that you like writing itself, but what it does for you - I found that to be a very interesting and relatable point.
I also really liked the line —-“ Writing makes me pry myself open and spill myself like a cut sack of marbles before the reader, be it myself or a total stranger. A force within that I don’t fully understand pushes me to do that. I have to listen to that force, or else I start living a lie.” —- that was beautifully written.
I really enjoyed this piece.
