Reading this article felt like someone massaging my soul and tenderly caressing my ego. It gave me goosebumps and made me smile. It  reminded me that I’m a writer despite my hesitancy to call myself one. It’s never a bad thing to read about how other writers write or the thought process that goes into creating art.

Oh, and they reminded me that sometimes it’s okay to be overdramatic, as long as you remember to dislodge your tongue from your cheek afterwards.

Read these nuggets of truth. You won’t be sorry.
