My watcher
The watcher at my gate is constantly in my head. Always telling me not to begin a piece of writing because if I don't begin then there is no way that I can fail. When I picture my "Watcher at the gate", I picture a version of myself. Its not exactly me but he has the same voice as me and thinks along the same lines that I myself think along. My watcher feeds on my negative spirits. Every time that I stop writing and say I have had enough he becomes stronger and ever more present in my mind. But with every sentence and line that I get down on my paper he seems to diminish more and more. My weapon against my "Watcher at the Gate" is my productive writing. Every time I begin a piece of writing I hear him telling me how wont be able to do the whole paper and how I will get a bad grade. With each paper that I complete my confidence builds and I come close to finally defeating the "Watcher at my Gate.
