Those who can’t do, teach. 😮 My thoughts EXACTLY! I could have saved myself hours of writing dissertations. I mean comments 😂. If only I had been reminded of this saying earlier. It could have also saved me years of frustration trying to learn real estate from people who couldn’t even afford toilet paper for the office even though they had side jobs. The people I learn the most from don’t try to teach they just share their life experiences, mostly for FREE. 🤪 My favorite online writing coach Abbie Emmons shows how she is using her process to write books. It made me realize that my random notes are the beginning of the book writing process, organizing those notes are the second part. In fact it turns out that all my instincts as a writer are valid. Including my unique perspective on things that if nothing else is engaging. I was taught by non-writers including teachers, that if my first draft for my first book attempt isn’t good that means that my book sucks, and I’m not going to be hired to write which means I can’t validate writing because I enjoy it. Plus I was taught i should care more about commas and capitalizing the word ‘I’, than my message. Even though that is one of the last things I do. And seems to be the last thing most writers address. Ironically even though I can’t help but writing, I’ve been at it for 6 hours today even though I was suppose to be taking the weekend off. And I even wrote a creative non-fiction novella called, WHAT DOES LOVE HAVE TO DO WITH IT, I still have difficulty taking myself seriously as a writer. I’m trying to write past the doubt by giving it a voice in a book I’m working on called “Lies ‘They’ve’ Told Me About Writing”. It’s an allegory for all the limitations we are taught to limit ourselves to. The excuses sound so STUPID to me when I write them down. The second best part of Abbie Emmons online coaching is she has online writing livestreams that makes me feel like I have company while I’m writing. Especially since my biggest concern right now is finishing a book. I’ve used TH-cam to learn how to make jewelry and run my business. Now I’m using to learn how to write better and teach myself art. I’m very happy with my progress. Until I think about ALL the things I want to learn. 😂 Or how I missed my ‘classes’ (meaning livestreams) this week, because I got caught up with painting exercises. My 2 critiques are: It was wrong for you to have your hand hit because you didn’t learn those writing rules. It’s wrong to hit kids and that’s one stupidest excuses I’ve heard to commit violence against kids. All they learn is writing sucks and violence works. The second is I wish the interview was longer and more in-depth. The video ended just when it was getting good. But that’s ok because I can use TH-cam to see if this writer has longer interviews on other channels. 🥳
Men like this stay in toilet stalls while you soil your pants, sox, shoes and the floor while waiting desperately, prayerfully and making contorted body twists. Eventually, you find a stairwell and smell up the entire wing. Police are called, you are carted off, strapped to a gurney and become a writer in hopes that laws will be passed to limit perpetual bathroom philosophers.
Whaaaaaaat? I don’t get it. How does the man being a writer effect you negatively? Especially when comes to going to the bathroom. I must have missed something. Please clarify.

This was amazing
People teaching creative writing, teach creative writing because they can't write creatively.....
