Why do I write?

I ask myself this question a lot, especially lately.  What am I doing trying to be a better writer when I'm not that good to start with?  I don't have a passion for it like other writers.  I don't have a gift with words.  (Although I think about a lot of things).   I'm not sure why I am trying to do this.  Except I see it as a challenge.  A challenge to try something new and different.  A challenge to explore a world that I am not very proficient in.  A challenge to hold myself accountable to this blog.

It hasn't been easy.  I have trouble coming up with an interesting topic when I write, even though I have lots to say.  But the only way I will get better at writing is if I keep writing.  So that is just what I am going to do.

Good Luck to me!

  1. Oh dear! I really don't choose the blogs I like because the author is outstanding. My fave blogs are chosen because I can relate in some way. I think a lot of bloggers want to be writers, but others just want to share, have fun. Example, I am not a swimmer but I like to play in the water, or I am not a singer but it sure is fun to sing. So blog because it satisfies you and for no other reason :)And yes, you will get better.
