A perfect rant about authenticity... "At the end of the day, the pandemic use of the word authentic underscores how massively disconnected we are, as individuals, to what it means to be fully ourselves. Fully and/or comfortably. We have to talk about being authentic all the time to convince ourselves that we actually are. And where does that come from? Ultimately that’s what we’re left to assess. Why is everyone trying so hard? WE DON’T NEED TO TRY SO HARD! We just need to BE our own weird selves. That’s authentic."
How to Write Your First Book via Buzzfeed
"Here, 21 successful writers share the stories of their first published books, complete with many false starts, debacles with agents and publishers, and advice they’d travel through time to give their younger selves." A lengthy, thorough, interesting post from... Buzzfeed? Color me shocked!

I love this woman so much, and this interview just makes me smile... though I admit I legit started crying when she alluded to the fact that this season could be the end of Parks & Rec.
25 Questions to Ask Yourself Before the End of the Year by Ashley Wilhite via Mind Body Green
Since I opted out of taking Stratejoy's Holiday Council this year, I thought this list from Ashley of Your Super Awesome Life was a good starting point for some self-reflection.

How to brand yourself as a multipotentialite in a way that makes sense to conventional employers via Puttylike
This post (and the comments section) is a good read for people like me who are interested in a wide array of subjects and/or who have a diverse employment history... "How do we brand ourselves as multipotentialites in a non-multi world? How do we package our round holes in square pegs?"
Fear Choice vs. Love Choice. Which will you choose? via Alexandra Franzen
A super short post with a brilliant message.
You need to go after the things you want by Ryan O'Connell via Thought Catalog
"WE WEREN’T BUILT TO BE CALM, COOL, AND COLLECTED. If we were, it
wouldn’t feel so fucking exhausting all the time. It would, you know,

lots of feelings."
