Your posts are weirdly motivational. I say weirdly because they don't have the usual 'your creative genius is within you' message. The message I'm getting is: cut the crap and write. Which is what I desperately need to do. Except for some reason I'm writing this comment instead of working on my cringy short story for a steemit writing contest due to end like NOW.
Guess I broke rule number 13.

Also, just to be annoying, on your first point I believe the word you're looking for is "authenticity". I know that's literally a synonym for genuineness but it just sounds better :P

Okay off to write my story now.
