“Struggling to write in a specific form? Try a new one.”
”Without words, without writing and without books there would be no history, there could be no concept of humanity.” -Hermann Hesse
Writing makes the world go round. It’s true. The trick is figuring out what kind of writing you can commit to for a lifetime. I don’t think the type really has to stay the same and dabbling to see what you like and to spice up your writing life is inspiring. But it’s good to narrow it down for a time. I like the novel. have an appreciation for the short story and a little prose but not as much as I like writing novels. Well, at least for now.
When I started calling myself a writer, (I think that was ten years ago), I didn’t realize the vast number of ways that writing held our world together. It tried a little bit of everything but one thing for sure was that I did not enjoy journalism. With that being said, I’m not opposed to trying any kind of writing over again.
As writers, the best way to find your place is to explore it all. If you’re forcing yourself into a form of writing, try a new one. Find a way to make it work for you. It won’t make it easier, but it might make the process more enjoyable.
What form of writing do you prefer? Do you have a desire to switch it up at all?
