Why Do You Do It?

Hey writers!

Question: Why do you write?

Is it to get revenge on the one who did you wrong?

To prove a point to the teacher that never understood you?

To show a different perspective to a common belief?

To tell the story of someone who practiced a different belief or faith than they were raised and to be honored for it rather than shamed?

To reveal truth without ever having to admit it happened to you? And only to the character?

Is it for the sheer fantasy of submerging yourself into a world that wouldn’t otherwise exist had you not wrote it?

Is it to WHINE??

Putting aside the need to write for a living or for an assignment, what is it that gets your fingers flying across the keyboard?

I’ve definitely fallen into some of these categories. And what I’ve found is that at least every other day, I write just because I’m trying to make sense of something.

What will you write about today?
