The professor I mentioned in this post was Louise Glück She was genuinely kind to me in a time when I was struggling with my writing She held the highest possible standard, but knew how to handle that standard with care I write the poems I write today thanks to her teaching 💗 – at Brooklyn, NY
In a recent conference with a professor, I was given an unusual permission: to write badly. The writing of poor drafts is part of arriving at the good drafts. The fact that you’re dissatisfied is good. The fact that you’re frustrated is good. It means you want to work.

"AI can benefit writers too! If you're stuck in your story, it can provide ideas for what happens next!" OK but what if I enjoy thinking about what happens next. What if I get a lot of satisfaction from mulling stuff over and figuring it out. What if that's the point.
