Having had a good day of writing, I'll get up the next day, and the well has run dry, and my first thought: It's over; I'm a has-been; I've lost it. Upon awakening the next day, I'll be like, I'm back, baby!

Life is short; nobody has time for my bullshit. That's why I keep my posts short, just like my 'no need to brush' hairstyle.

All good quotes contain a semicolon; like this one.

I want to write something that moves people to tears. Your mum's dead!

Once in a while you stumble on a sequence of words that make you go, yeah, that's pretty good!

Sometimes words flow like a river; sometimes they dry up, and you have to dig.

Reasons I'm sticking to writing short pieces instead of essays and articles:
- I'm good at writing short bits, I can get them on the page before I get bored with the topic.
- It's how I started writing in the first place making memes.
- It provides constraints to my productivity, so I'm more focused and less worried about the ten other types of projects I used to try and complete
- People don't have the attention span for long reads thanks to reels and tiktoks
- Video is far too time-consuming, and harder to get right and do well.
- Besides maybe psychology I know a little about a lot, so all I need to say is one or two things on a certain topic.
- I love writing short peices.
- I can spit out a heap of them and have them live in minutes not hours.
- I'm all over the place so writing short peices allows my to write about twenty things instead of picking ne.
- I have more resistance to longer writing so I'm more likely to focus on other things and not get the work done.
- I can group my short writing and turn them into fun reads for Amazon and Google Play
- It's simple and uncomplicated enough that I am not confused and still improve at it.
- Most of my existing stuff is short writing put together, so it's time to stay in my lane and make that work, instead of trying to make ten different things happen
- I can post short writing to Facebook without bombarding people with words.

My writing at this point is essentially brainfarts; that's a good term for it.

I wish there was a good name for writing short peices, like sh-iting or something. I sh-ite every day.

I like short writing because it lets me get ideas out of my head and into the world quickly.
