Writing is a means of expression, bringing something that’s inside to the surface, a mirror of sorts. Sometimes it is a raw, emotional reaction, other times a more measured and thoughtful attempt at recording observations, feelings, and opinions. Perhaps more than anything, it is a delightfully unexpected connection with other people from all over the planet– I think– that I dream will lead to many waiting for my contribution to the Daily Writing Prompt and other entries. I’d be lying if I said the Likes and occasional comments didn’t mean anything to me.
Short of that, writing may always be the way I start each day– as an outlet, a habit and a discipline, as comfort and a way to focus. Writing, to me, involves a constant effort to refine a craft, to capture an essence, to find the right words, drilling to the core of how I’m seeing the world, and then putting it out there for others to react to.
