The feeling I have reminds me of New Yearโs Eve, when the countdown is coming and Iโm not quite sure whether to grab my camera or just live in the moment. Usually I grab the camera and later regret it when the picture doesnโt turn out. Then I feel enormously let down and think to myself that the night would have been more fun if it didnโt mean quite so much, if I werenโt forced to analyze where Iโve been and where Iโm going.
Emily GiffinI think it's important to try to be present with whatever it is you're doing. And if you can't be present, take a break.
Emily GiffinI try to be true to the characters that I've created and sometimes I disagree with them, but their opinions about the story and the characters really matter to me.
