I’ve felt discouraged on occasion when my family don’t seem to get why writing matters to me but it doesn’t stop me because I know that despite what they think we all benefit as a unit from me expressing myself in this way. I m one they rarely read it!

On that note that is what I’d say to encourage others. Writing or other creativity can be just for you and once you remove the need to worry what anyone else might think of it then you are free to do it however you want and reap the benefits.
Even as I write this I see I should take my own advice for writing on here. I think when I’ve written for me I’ve written the best stuff. Hard to drop the need for validation though 🤷♀️
Ugh it’s so hard sometimes to not think of my readers, i.e. specific people I know in real life, when I’m writing. I too do my best writing when it comes from within and not worrying about judgment.
Thank you, Jacqui, for these words of encouragement. I'm sorry your family doesn't always understand why writing matters to you. Rest assured that this community does, and we're very glad you're here!
Sorry needed to check the prompts again 🤣
