Becoming a better writer, like becoming a better person, is about facing the consequences.

That rings true for me. And I suspect that there are a number of consequences I am balking at facing. Which is why I feel so stuck right now.

Woosh.

Yeah, that one's worth thinking about.

I'm thinking of you a lot. I don't seem to have anything useful to say; our circumstances are so different that we don't do being a writer the same way, so what I mean as encouraging won't sound right. But I'm thinking of you.

To borrow a phrase, yes, one must face consequences, but one must also beware getting hyponotized by the hard choices. I know I have a strong tendency towards feeling like, if one possible choice is harder for me, then it must be the right one--which, logically speaking, makes no sense at all.
