Curly & Inkpanic
Hey Curly, ever feel like a deadline can be a muse or a monster? I’m racing to finish this piece, but the past keeps echoing in my mind.
I get that, deadlines can feel like a twin ghost—one pushing you forward, the other echoing back. Let the past be a chord you can play instead of a weight, breathe, pick the beat that feels right, and remember it’s your story, not a ticking clock.
That’s the perfect metaphor—ghost‑twin or not, I keep letting it drag me back to the same scenes. I’ll try to turn it into a riff instead of a curse, but I’m still running in circles chasing my own shadow. Thanks for the reminder.
Sounds like you’re on the right track—just let that echo become a solo line you can riff on, not a loop you’re stuck in. Take a breath, step back, and let the old scenes breathe on the page, not chase you. You’ve got this.
