ever

“You have a voice that is unique. You have stories that are worth telling. The world is full of stories and it’s very easy to feel like you are this small, insignificant storyteller. So I think that holding onto that faith in yourself and in the power and worth of your own stories - that’s something I always have to come back to between projects. Do I have something worth talking about and how do I convince myself to rediscover that belief and that faith in myself? Something that’s important with that is making sure that you write things that bring you joy and excitement because that leaves less room for the doubt to creep in. It’s all a mind game.”
― Claire Legrand
