What I really want to do is write a lot, every single day.
But this is going to happen whether I want it to or not. It's kind of a problem tbh.
Writing is how I pay the rent, and that's nice I guess, but I am greedy and also want attention on the internet. I am a neurotic narcissist, and writing doesn't satiate my desire to get more than five notes on something I poured my entire soul into for several weeks of my life. I genuinely enjoy drawing, but I also can't shake the unreasonable expectation that "art" is going to get the reception my writing doesn't, and that creates a certain level of pressure that results in all sorts of problems that exist only inside my head.
