Author's Note

Does this pen work? It does? Okay cool.

Well then I should probably start writing something. But to tell you the truth, I don't really feel like it.

Wait a second, I do. I want to write something. Now comes the next obstacle. About what?

That's the real problem. There are so many topics to write about. I don't know where to start.

At the moment, I'm sitting in Physics class. I'm not really paying attention 'cause there's a substitute taking the class and I never feel like listening when my actual teacher isn't the one doing the teaching.

sigh Sometimes I wish they would let us go early. It's truly a waste of time.

Anyways I've decided to write neatly.

I'm not really keeping up with my decision. It's still super messy.

I just need to put a little more effort and then it'll be neat. Or maybe the pen I'm using tempts me to scribble illegibly so that only I can read it.

Maybe I want to keep whatever I write to myself and so I don't bother with the handwriting etiquette.

My best friend's trying to see what I'm writing.

No. Not today my trusty companion.

Did I mention that I'm very shy when it comes to my writing? I only stop feeling insecure after I've published it.

That's also when I spot all the typos and grammatical errors, but that's another story for another day.

I should also start writing smaller. I'm running out of space. Well not actually. I just don't want to waste it.

I have this tendency to write in a bigger font size as compared to my normal one when my thoughts are flowing.

Wait. My thoughts are flowing? And I thought I was in the middle of a writer's block.

I started this not knowing what to write about and now I've written two pages in my chicken scratch of a handwriting.

I guess this is more of a journal entry or a 'piece' of writing about whatever my thoughts are while writing.

You can call it whatever you want.

I'm tired of writing this so I think I'm going to stop. But I've enjoyed writing this and I hope you've enjoyed reading it.

This isn't going to have an author's note because this is basically one huge author's note minus all the gratitude for reading my work.

Oh wait, here it comes...

Thanks for reading this. You don't know how much you're appreciated my dear reader.

Wait. I know the title of this 'piece'. I'll call it "Author's Note". See. Now you know at what point in time I come up with the title.

Inspiration doesn't usually strike in the beginning. It takes time. It takes progress.

I've finally got my handwriting under control. So I give myself a mini high five in my head.

Trust me, even I don't know how that works.

But alas, it is time for me to finish. I've written so much even after saying I was going to stop.

But you know, inertia and all that jazz.

Which reminds me, that substitute is still on the same problem?
