Just a Rant About Life | Discussion

It feels like everything I write about blogging is negative, but I guess that’s just my mental health for you 😂. I’ve always wanted to work in the creative industry, whether it be writing for different magazines, writing my own book, or working in the publishing industry.

You read about things like this in dystopian novels, you watch films/TV shows based on pandemics, but you never think that it’s going to happen to you, you think they’re just things that happened way back when in history and that they’re a thing of the past. Well… that’s what I thought, anyway.

So.

How am I coping?

Not good, I’m afraid.
