Once more with feeling
I had to use that at some point, tbh
When people say “just stick to the facts,” they usually mean either: don’t make me feel anything or, don’t tell me anything extra.
And, while it is important af to be very clear in your message when writing, today, see what happens if you honor your sidebars and digressions. Try it. Write something today that includes facts and feelings and relevant tangents. Let all of it stay close to the skin and see what happens. Let’s write.
