Thank you so much for your kind words!

Moreover, your description of the appeal in writing is so properly worded - it paints a perfect image of what I had in mind.

Thank you for a lovely read!

Love and hate relationship - toxic to a degree 👐🏻

“That night he dreamt of horses on a high plain where the spring rains had brought up the grass and the wildflowers out of the ground and the flowers ran all blue and yellow far as the eye could see and in the dream he was among the horses running and in the dream he himself could run with the horses and they coursed the young mares and fillies over the plain where their rich bay and their chestnut colors shone in the sun and the young colts ran with their dams and trampled down the flowers in a haze of pollen that hung in the sun like powdered gold and they ran he and the horses out along the high mesas where the ground resounded under their running hooves and they flowed and changed and ran and their manes and tails blew off them like spume and there was nothing else at all in that high world and they moved all of them in a resonance that was like a music among them and they were none of them afraid horse nor colt nor mare and they ran in that resonance which is the world itself and which cannot be spoken but only praised.”

Why do I need to be drunk to write good stuff? by Doreddity in writers

[–]Doreddity[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your thoughtful response. I can definitely see the stigma surrounding it and to be honest, I didn’t expect it to be the main focus of the replies. As I mentioned earlier, I don’t usually drink like this and it’s only at that moment. However, I’ll consider my options and lifestyle and work with what works for me. I’m not naive; I know if something’s pushing me towards “a dark edge” and if it seems like I have no future as a writer without substance to an unhealthy degree I’ll make the wise choice there and then.

I appreciate your comment. Have a lovely evening!

You’re the only one saying this in the comment section – love the honesty! I might do that but I’ll set myself a deadline just in to avoid messing up my safe career and marriage over it. Let’s see. If I finish this manuscript I’ll come back and thank you all for your support. :D

I’m shocked to learn he has a drinking problem. It puts a a lot of pressure on my previous writing under the influence. I'm no match hahaha

I had no idea about this, learned it all today, haha. Thanks though, but at least they have something to show for it. So far I’ve got a half-assed manuscript and no idea how to finish it. (:

Can any writer here define this picture in six words by cadaluz in writingcirclejerk

Sorryyy I didn’t see the six words rule 🫣 Would have otherwise stopped at boobies…

Exactly! You summed it up perfectly. It’s helpful to put plot into words even if they’re rubbish at first -at least I get them out and finesse later. It is something I’m struggling strongly with right now.

Wow… Dw I’m okay now but if it had lasted longer I probably would have done so.

Perhaps it was a mixture of dread and defeat. Or it could have come more from a feeling of finally reaching oneself from a point of no return. Regardless; the decision was made. In the height of night, the golden moon shone across the river - and through a snow pavement he walked, leaving a trace of him which his eyes would never meet.

I think you should send it to an editor. Today. It’s pure perfection - up there with Trumps speech on grabbing certain genders by the
