You sit in a workshop, pour your heart out on paper, and it
doesn't get as good of a reaction as you'd hoped. Meanwhile, the girl
who sits in front of you writes something brilliant and painful and
moving and the class universally reacts to her talents, including
you. You might feel a little twinge, but it's okay. You can be
inspired to be a better writer. Maybe cut out 90% of what you wrote,
or start over. You can appreciate her talent and how it ultimately
inspires you to become better.
