'I don't know if my writing is worth other people's time' my dear you are a leaky bag of undercooked soup with the bones left in, that you can make other people think and feel and see things just by arranging squiggles on a screen is a miracle beyond the imagination of any conceivable demiurge, you deserve to write the thing

#inspirational #really I just wanted to use the 'leaky bag of soup' line #I've barely slept x.x

MIZ MY DEAR YOU WERE FOREMOST ON MY LIST OF PEOPLE TO WHOM THIS POST IS ADDRESSED.

YOU ARE A LEAKY BAG OF UNDERCOOKED SOUP WITH THE BONES LEFT IN, THAT YOU CAN MAKE ME THINK AND FEEL AND SEE THINGS JUST BY ARRANGING SQUIGGLES ON A SCREEN IS ONE OF THE BRIGHT POINTS OF MY DAY AND I LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR NEXT VENTURE WHENEVER YOU FEEL ABLE

No but see, my combination of absolutely garbage Broken Brain and [REDACTED TRAGIC BACKSTORY] means that obviously, I am the real trashbag that should have been burned ages ago.
