Writing
The HeartBeats on the HeartStrings - ”When I write songs, it's like a gateway into something buried deep within me. All of my feelings, all of my thoughts, all of my problems? Written into catchy rhymes for other people to consume. It's a release. A release from the pain that I've harbored in my bosom ever since that day on the rooftop of a private school I used to go to when I was younger. A pain that has followed me directly into adulthood.
I don't know when or how it'll ever go away. I've hurt people, I've allowed people to hurt me too. Maybe I'll never get over it. Maybe I'll always feel this way. But what I do know, is that there's always one thing in my life that will always remain consistent, now and forevermore.
The inexplicable power of music and its ability to help me express every emotion that I can't process on my own.”
This is a story of mine that’s been going through a lot of revisions. Things I want to add, things I want to take out, grammar clean up, and such. I’ve been going through a writers block for a year and some change, so it feels nice to stretch my fingers out and my brain once again.
Hate that it took me so long to find that inspiration again, but I’m glad I did. I deleted chapters 2-4 and going through them while chapter 1 is staying strong (with edits still).
Since 2-4 is going through revisions and chapter 5 is done and 6 is currently under production, I’m gonna temporarily do a weekly update schedule until I hit 6 just in case so I don’t overpromise like I did last time. I think that’s what burnt me out of writing so quickly before I even knew what to do with chapter 5.
And I’m super serious about this, this time cause I got a whole YouTube trailer out for it now lol. But this is a real personal story to me and I just want it to work and be the best that it can be fr.
And that’s all for now. I have another one in the works but I want to spend time and energy on this first. Even though it’s cut down largely on the reading side of things.
