Writing

[lady_karelia]

To all who write, I'm curious. Why do you write? I'm genuinely curious, and I don't want anyone to draw ideas from others' comments, so I'm screening comments for a day or two. I just want a really honest opinion. And if you don't want your comment to be seen, say so, and I won't unscreen it. I'm just really curious.

Hmm, mostly I write because bunnies attack me. Ideas form in my head and keep spinning around in my brain, and I can't focus on anything else until I get them down on page.

I was talking to a gal I used to teach with. She was telling me some of her adventures in homeschooling and mentioned how active my imagination is. I guess that's really it. Overactive imagination.

I'm imagining the bunnies biting at your ankles. ;)

I don't think an imagination can be overactive where writing is concerned. I mean, the more active it is, the more plot there is likely to be, no?
