#creativity is magic

I just posted the final chapter of my first Human AU. Writing this is one more entry on the long list of things I’m grateful for as a result of Terry and Neil and this fandom. I have been writing for work (marketing, fundraising, grants) for 20+ years. I know I can write. But I deeply believed I didn’t have the imagination to write fiction. It was too serious, too important. I wasn’t up to the task. And so the few times I tried, it felt like a chore.

My art? My creativity, it flows through my fingers on to the keyboard to then end up on the document before me. Silent pleas in black and white, to be heard but not quite heard. My fingertips burned onto the keys of my keyboard, unable to see the keys in the uv light through the smudges. My soul has been poured out here, my laptop probably knows me better than my own mother.
