They say to be an extraordinary writer one must write every day. It doesn't matter what words drop from your pen when it hits the paper... just as long as they're dropping. My Professor challenged me to do just that. So here it is. Perhaps between this and a notebook my writing will progress. I'm not sure that writing is ever really about money as much as it is about bringing something to life, and even better... having that story bring life to someone. To maybe put a passion back into someone, inspire or give hope. Sometimes a reality check. I've heard it said that you discover a lot about yourself with the things you write, if you free your mind enough and let all boundaries fade. I'm interested to see exactly who I am. Writing turns into reading, which causes one to think...to follow something and if it's good enough they'll fully commit to finishing what they've started. ******************************************************** Write down the thoughts of the moment.
