Turns out, I also needed Wellbutrin!

Today, I noodled around on what I’m call the ‘cult’ novel.

I’ve been playing around with a cult-ish thing for a several weeks now, and I’ve finally dedicated a spiral bound notebook to it. It always feels a little embarrassing to start a new project, I feel, because in the early days it’s so unformed. It’s hard not to feel like the characters are dumb or that it’s too melodramatic. I haven’t even landed on a real plot yet, just messing around with some character studies and trying to flesh out what this cult actually looks like. I haven’t been able to rekindle my love for any of my old projects, the ones I started before settling on my recently finished novel draft, so maybe something brand new is what I need.

Love and gratitude, as always.

I am trying to post something every day reflecting on creativity, what’s inspiring me now and what’s inspired me in the past, what I’m working on. Think of this is a public writing journal, made public only in an attempt to make myself more accountable.
