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.

As so often, what you say completely resonates with me. Including the need to edit and revise, lol. I do a lot of that, and sometimes I wish I worked a bit faster, but then again, I cannot because that wouldn't be me.

I so hope you'll share your writings one day!

There can be no rushing or changing to fit others' styles, for as you say, it's not us.

Eventually I think I will, but I have a different concept of time than others. Most of life is lived in the time scales to which we all must answer, but creativity .. I can leave something for periods of time and come right back to it, with new insight, and that is a huge thrill for me.
