So, you are a writer... not trying to be. You are. And a good one. If anyone asks (que annoying panic inducing tone) WHAT ARE YOU WRITING?? Just direct them here to this substack full of your writing ♥️

I relate to this so hard! Lena was like what? 24-26 when she got Girls and I thought I was so behind. I'm still so behind (I'm 35 now and can barely keep my substack going). I just finished the book and the whole thing actually gave a lot of perspective on becoming famous at a young age (also how and why she got it done. Like, yes privilege, but also having artist parents who she spent her life watching create art and encouraged her to create art. Not all of us have that). Anyway, we keep etching away at our craft even though we have day jobs and 401ks to contribute to. ALSO, agree with the below comment of "GOD, you're good." You're really good!

Thanks so much Nicky! Biggest response to this post has been encouragement to finish the book and I’m excited to do so

This is sounding religious but to be clear by GOD I do mean you.
