““writing is a very lonely occupation. You have no colleagues, but your office space is shared with countless horrible little demons of self-doubt, and insecurity, despondency and hopelessness. And they’re not very supportive at all. It’s hard enough pouring your soul into something that may just come to absolutely nothing, without feeling that no one gives a shit, one way or the other. You need accountability, and sometimes all it takes is someone to show an interest, ask a question or two, acknowledge this scary, crazy thing you’re doing. And it keeps the demons quiet for a little while.””

They have a wonderful office space and I'm always there for the interior part and get to see what she's doing with EleVen.” quote by Serena Williams](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/c64/serena-williams-1589_business_venus-williams-has-an-amazing-line-i-lov_1103955.jpg)
