 my last public post is from jan this year. that's not including all the drafts i wrote out and deleted before posting, or the posts i did publish on private and/or deleted shortly after. much like the state of my dw, i also haven't been able to write much either in general. i've been busy with university (so i guess i have been writing in a way), and at this point i think all of us have been going through a lot this year, so i don't even need to get into any personal matters.

My biggest uni project is coming to an end, though, and recently i've refound my passion for reading, at least within a particular genre and type of work. i'm really hoping to branch out again when i have more time for myself, and i'm really hoping to finally get back into writing again.
i've had a lot of ideas and thoughts abt it recently, so hopefully i'll be able to get started again soon!

something that has cheered me up this year when i felt like i had lost the spark permanently was:

“You are probably the only one with the natural ability to understand this: I am always writing, even when I am not.”
 
— Marcel Proust, from a letter to his mother c. March 1903

it's a quote i remembered when talking to a friend, and it really helped me calm down and stop beating myself up about not writing all of the time. 

there's also another thing i wanted to talk about regarding writing and creating in times like these (when it feels like the whole world is on fire), but i'll save that for another time.

for now, i will do my best to finish what i'm currently going through, since i'm finally near the finish line, and i'll forgive myself for not being able to do all the other things i've wanted to until then. i'm ready to move on and start anew.

good luck on finishing up the rest of your uni project! And boy oh boy do I get you. Writing in this time has been extremely weird and challenging, so please do give yourself grace and space to do what you need to to take care of yourself. And ooh that's exciting that you've found your passion for reading - what are a few books you've enjoyed recently?
