Write what you know.
In my case that's CPTSD, substance abuse, sexual assault trauma, the mess that was my 20s, and a life that defies comfortable tropes.
lol some dork ass on Reddit is like "why are writers obsessed with traumatizing their characters?"
Among smarter reasons, it's also because if nobody is traumatized then I don't get my sweet, sweet hurt/comfort fix.
And offering that comfort to people who otherwise don't feel they'll ever have it ;__;
Your stories are such a comfort. Even when my brain won't let me focus enough to listen to them >//< They're still an all time favourite and I hop you don't forget that.
