This week, I was thinking about a few short stories I wrote around 2016.
In these stories, my main characters all suffered from a lack: a lack of love, passion, desire, belief or connection. The people around them were living, but my protagonists were stuck.
They didn’t know what they wanted or how that made them feel, and even if they did they wouldn’t be able to articulate it.
Their condition was a reflection of my own.
In today’s episode, I talk about how your writing can show you the inner work you need to do, plus how my intuition guided me this week to work on my projects in a way that didn't involve writing.
