Answer: For me, I love the rewriting part. Just having a story that comes together is very satisfying for me. It makes me happy and proud of myself. My story-telling talent gives me purpose and hope that I will have a great future. Sadly, dealing with toxic parents made me sad and devastate for the future, but my writing makes me happy!

There's nothing richer than incorporating life experience into your writing. Hang in there. But as for me, I would say the easiest (and funnest) part is the logline. Once I have that, the soul of the story is complete.

I hear where you're coming from about having to deal with toxic parents. Me, I grew up with an alcoholic mother (she died at age 49 on 3-31-1983...would've turned 90 on 8-8-2023).
Pins and needles every step of the way.
I hope a great future for you, too...and all of the VERY BEST.
