“If I waited for perfection, I would never write a word.” – Margaret Atwood
Writing is the anchor I didn’t know I needed. But now I have it, and I will use it as much as I need. When writing becomes more than just “something to do,” it’s a different lifestyle. I hear you, when you say writing is not better or worse than others who write to write. It’s just different. The need to write is sometimes stronger than the desire, but it’s such a gift when the desire is there. Like anything else, daily habits mean you do them regardless of how you feel. At the same time, I think we can all agree that everything feels better when you want to do it.
Why do you write?
