The topic isn't as important to me as whether it's well-written. You have no worries there!

Oh muh gaw! This is so entirely YOU. I'm sitting here trying to put simple words in my journal to explain the feel of sharing my 200-word micro-essays and prompts (which you so wisely spurred me to do), how they're causing me to be more attentive to ... life ... to everything. How lovely that feels, how freeing, even though the stats are dismal, that doesn't matter! I'm writing and giving my muse space every single day. But I can't quite gather the words that exemplify this feeling. And then to read this... ah, our writing, publishing experiences have been so very different but there's so much I identify with in this essay. You my friend, YOU, you are brilliant and so damn interesting (no more of those "I'm boring" lies, okay?!) And to see you coming back into yourself in this way makes my heart explode!!!
