the lovely thing about writing is "good" is extremely subjective, and only matters to the reader. if you're only writing for yourself, you're not there to people please, you're just there for you. I don't share my writing much anymore, aside from writing with my partner, or in some cases, for them.

I threw out some of my old writing too, and desperately wish I could have it back. but, there's never a bad time to start up again and create something new, even if it's just to test the waters. just something to think about. I always support people using writing as a coping mechanism.
