Just a fun side project—to improve my own speaking & communication skills.
Disclaimer: listen on your risk; my voice kinda sucks lol.

I decided to write only when I feel that I have something compelling to share instead of forcing myself to make everything into content
(Also I chose to not make this a business which gives me the privilege to do so but yes)
Finally decided to hit publish again…this time a long, heartfelt one.

I’ve gotten really good at one thing: moving the needle forward.
A successful day for me looks like this:
- having written and published blog post
- having composed some music, making as much progress as I can on the current commission project

I don’t have time for “imposter syndrome”. Dreams aren’t guaranteed and life is too short for me to question my capability, especially when everyone around me is encouraging me to go for it.

Reading old Substack posts and feeling…so…ughh about it. What was I thinking when I wrote them??
I’m not revisiting the ones on Medium…
I don’t really use this word but…*cringe*
Finally wrote an article again, after roughly a 6 month break from writing at all (okay, my school essays and thesis don’t count)
Collating a list for my Live In(spiration) newsletter definitely isn’t it!
It’s just nice to finally pour out so many feelings onto a page again.

Hey peeps, unless I personally send you a PDF copy of one of my novels, please don't download it. Writing is my career. Thank you :) #thatisall
Note to self: my life choices need not be justified to the people around me (especially when it doesn’t affect them)

The best way to start feeling better about yourself is to stop convincing people of who you are and start showing up in the world as the person you want to be. You don’t need to convince, you just need to be it.

can we normalize emotionally supporting ppl when they bring up something emotional? like can we stop jumping to intellectualize? can we stop telling them what needs fixing or jumping to solutions? if someone says how they feel, it’s ok to just respond acknowledging the feeling

Taking time off is so necessary. It's so tempting for me to jump on my laptop and research and write and get right back into it.
But I know how important it is to step back, let myself breathe, and gain new perspectives.
I wanna start a quote diary but I feel like I can’t keep up with it either — saving them digitally just feels so much easier
THIS. About contents creation. Art has increasingly becoming more about content and pleasing the algorithm and less about being creative and artistically good.

Many are teaching other aspiring creators, maybe even artists to go viral instead. If you see courses offered, it’s more of how to go viral on x platform, or how to make x amount of money every other month or week.
Music? Content. Drawing/paintings/other art works? Content. Article, book, ebooks? Content. Many works are truly reduced to just content now.
