Journal #31

November 7, 2020 by Deanna Repose Oaks

I can’t write today. So many things going on with the world that are just too overwhelming. To write about these overwhelming things is overwhelming instead of calming. What am I going to do now that the one thing I used to calm myself down is now overwhelming me? How am I even typing right now? I don’t even know anymore. It is a habit now, I guess. I think that’s how we have to get to be great writers, just keep writing, no matter what.

I always thought I did that, but I never really did until now.
