I don't know how to write without it taking a lot out of me. Creative efforts are that way in general, but it feels like there's always a little destruction and devastation before I can produce anything. And then I'm still not happy with any of it... no one appreciate it, because why should they? It's not very good. And I continue to be unhappy. I'm unhappy when I don't write, unhappy when I do. I wish I wasn't a writer sometimes. How much better would my life be if I just gave it up? Gave up hope that I'll do anything with it or ever find it fulfilling again? Probably a lot.

reading is fundamental
I wish I had kept track of all the books I've read since I started volunteering at the library. I've been reading so much more, and I'm happy about that. As a kid, I read absolutely voraciously but due to depression it just got harder when I got older. Harder to focus and find the same enjoyment in it. But it's been better lately. Mostly I've been reading kids books and comics and manga, but I have had some grown up books in there. I've read a lot of diverse stuff lately so it's cool. I'll list the titles I remember.
