Write the story you want to write

It's ok if your story is predictable. Not every work of fiction needs to reinvent the wheel.

There's a reason that tropes exist, and it's because readers enjoy them and they make compelling stories. As long as the journey is fun, readers will come along for the ride.

every friday night i remember that the universe is beautiful, and there is goodness within me. every friday night i remember that to struggle is to be human. every friday night i remember to brazenly, bravely be content, is to be human. every friday night i remember that i am a link in a chain, of horror and unhappiness, but also, of joy and brilliance. every friday night i remember the world will never be perfect, but it is all we have, so it is our right and duty to delight in it.
