And here we are, winding down for the year! I believe we're in good shape for OneDeadPlotBunny 2017-- details in a future post. (And a most-massive thank you to 2016's moderators for everything this year. \o/)

Hopefully I may have some drabbles for

Date: 2017-01-20 07:30 am (UTC)I'm having the same reaction to a novel. I have a story that a friend wants me to write but at this point, everything feels futile.
I want to write. I just feel like it's a waste of time. Especially since I don't know if I'll survive for a year under Trump. He and his cronies don't like Social Security and Medicare, and I need both to live.
Oh, and I am fighting to pay my bills, so that's another joy.

Date: 2017-01-20 03:53 pm (UTC)So, I'm trying to look at it this way: In all of human history, the one thing that truly endures is our stories. Empires may crumble, entire nations and peoples may vanish, but the stories our ancestors once told each other are still with us today. As ours will be for our descendants. Our words will go on long after we are dust. A single ruler (no matter how corrupt) can't stop that.
Keep doing this thing you love. The stories we will leave behind are what makes life worth living.
