Coming down is calming down

After a few days of no contact with Critic Boy, he pops up on messenger last night. You can't see me right now, but I'm rolling my eyes. He seemed really nice at first. I swear. Now, he's just annoying.

I knew I shouldn't have let him read the beginning of my screenplay. It was just ten pages.. only like 9 scenes or so. It wasn't established yet. Give me a break, Critic Boy. Give me a break.

But I am happy to say that I'm making progress with my screenplay. Even with the constant plague of self-doubt I've always had. You can't please everyone. Everyone in the world is not going to like what I produce. And I have to learn to be okay with that. I'm a people pleaser. I don't like to disappoint anyone. I don't want anyone to not like what I do. I hate rejection and critics. Which may be why Critic Boy is not on my favorite persons list right now. I'm working through it. Day by day.

But I will never date Critic Boy. Sorry, Critic Boy.
