Random quote of the day:

“Writing is terrible. Because it is terrible, it is appropriate to complain about it. It is enjoyable to complain about it. Complaining about writing is writing adjacent and therefore entirely professional. It eats up time in which you might otherwise be expected to do more writing.”

—Kelly Link, “Kelly Link’s Advice to Debut Authors: Writing is Terrible, Complaining About it is Fine,” 2019 speech One Story Debutante Ball
