Do you suck today?

Sometimes I'm lucky. Sometimes I get to ride a high for just a few minutes or hours, thinking I might have a glimmer of talent. But most of the time I just plain suck. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining. I absolutely love writing and would never pick any other career for myself. I've even developed a certain knack of working through the crippling feelings of failure.

I'm writing this post not because I want to rant or vent, but because I've noticed that people in general tend to fluctuate in their opinions of their talents. And it tends to change day by day. So you tell me, do you suck today? How do you get through it? Do you write anyway, only to be surprised later during a read-through that it really didn't suck as bad as you thought?

  1. Hahaha...this made me laugh. No, I don't suck today, but on the days I do, I try to stay as far away from writing as possible. It's never a good combination.
