honestly if stephanie meyer can write the same book twice and get millions of dollars for it, that’s enough inspiration in and of itself for me to write my own shitty YA novel. in fact this should be an inspiration to us all to write and publish the shitty YA novels we’ve always dreamed of writing, particularly ones with more diverse characters and less creepy misogyny. who’s with me??

This is an important point! Never believe that your writing is completely terrible. No matter how bad your writing is, there’s always someone who’s worse. And that someone has probably been published.
Write what you would like to read, and people will read it.
things my parents never discussed with me
Save 10% of each check and put it into your savings. Living paycheck to paycheck will never keep you ahead of the game.
If you’re undecided about a career, pickup a trade or work your way up the ladder at your job. Do not continue to work in the same position for more than 2-3 years.
Seek therapy for your issues instead of self medicating with casual sex or drugs, venting to your friends constantly, becoming antisocial or co-dependant on someone. It’s not healthy.
If you’re not receiving the same energy you put into a friendship or relationship, leave. You are not a doormat.
