Challenges am facing as a writer. AI-Generated.
As a creative writer, I've always been drawn to the romanticized idea of sitting at a desk, pen in hand and pouring my heart and soul onto the page. But the reality of being a writer is far from romantic. It's a journey filled with self-doubt, rejection and uncertainty.

An open letter to the voices in my head
Dear Echoes in my mind I understand how enraging it becomes from time to time to express yourself, to finally say what's on your mind, to bury your sadness and angst through my being. Because I know how infuriating it is to be confined in an endless labyrinth of what-ifs and curating the worst-case scenarios for every stance we go through. I know all you are trying to do is protect me from the potential perils of my existential stride, to shield me from the externality of how horrendous the world could be. I behold your concern, I see you as you are and I feel your pain, but I want to be honest with you and I am tired. I am tired of your constant whispers of how bad the world is, how everything can turn against me or how I can become better because the present me is not good enough.
