draft 0112 – writing and the human qualities it brings with it.
You know writing is a very personal thing you can do, and to actually let people read it, is very brave (wait, so does that mean I’m brave, hmm, quite possibly). Whoever is a writer (don’t forget about me), you are already doing a spectacular job already.
Writing shouldn’t be done just to please somebody, it should be because you enjoy writing and want your voice to be heard. So, whatever it is you write about just go and do it, if it is starting to write a book, then go and do it (I am mostly just telling myself this because I need to write a book).
If you think about it, writing is basically taking somebody into your mind and how it works. Also, quite possibly, giving them access to your most private thoughts. It can also be quite exhilarating, giving your thoughts about certain topics.
I am more and more starting to understand how writing can help you so much. I want my writing to reach as many people as possible.
Anyway, even though writing is a very personal thing, please just do it for yourself and somebody may be waiting for that piece that you were going to write anyway. So, let’s go and do it.
So, I’ll be back on Sunday afternoon at 1pm.
See you then, drafters.
