Some did not agree, but I had to leave in the interest of my mental health. And I don't regret it! Going back to the book, I thought the Woodland Meadows bit was so sad! It was going so well but others were conspiring against him. It was such a positive impact and I wished it had turned out differently, but at least he found the strength to move on and continue with his life.

Thanks for sharing your experience, I understand how difficult it can be to leave sometimes. That's definitely a lesson Newbery learned financially. Luckily, the experience did have a positive impact, but I also found the whole ordeal really sad. It's so painful to be right and trying to do good, but outside forces like the government would rather maintain the status quo. I hated reading how Newbery was duped into giving them information about tenants, so the government could kick them out later. It was crazy they were planning to get the property back even from the initial auction.VSuraj wrote: ↑16 May 2020, 18:14 Yes, I went through a situation where I couldn't win in the end. It involved leaving behind a toxic situation. It was making me feel depressed, and staying would have meant putting myself through more stress. I had to leave for the sake of my well being. Like Newbery, I tried to entire the stress and bare with it as much as I could, but it wasn't working for me.

I totally relate to your struggle! Even though writing is technically as simple as putting words on the page, it's crazy how difficult this act is. It's even harder when people may not know about or believe in your writing. Keeping track of the muse is hard as well, ahaha.HorrorFan87 wrote: ↑28 Feb 2016, 16:53 Absolutely. Honestly my Woodland Meadows Moment would have to be when I was writing my book. I still haven't finished the darn thing and it's been years since I started. I get to a point where I hit inspiration and then all of a sudden my mind would go blank and I'd lose all track of what I was even writing. It's so frustrating, and even though I cannot compare it to Jorge's "failure", I can definitely to it. I'm still trying to finish what I started but criminy it's hard...I have to hand it to Jorge for sticking to his guns and giving it his all, even if not everyone thought it was worthwhile or successful.
