Advice Column #64: Tiny Beautiful Thing
My question is short and sweet: what would you tell your 20-something self if you could talk to her now?
Most things will be okay eventually, but not everything will be. Sometimes you’ll put up a good fight and lose. Sometimes you’ll hold on really hard and realize there is no choice but to let go. Acceptance is a small, quiet room.
When that really sweet but fucked up gay couple invites you over to their cool apartment to do ecstasy with them, say no.
Don’t lament so much about how your career is going to turn out. You don’t have a career. You have a life. Do the work. Keep the faith. Be true blue. You are a writer because you write. Keep writing and quit your bitching. Your book has a birthday. You don’t know what it is yet.
