Someone asked me the other day why I write. (poetry, short stories, etc.) I was at a loss for a moment, thinking. I wasn't sure I had a clear answer. I have too many reasons, so how do I decide which one is the most important, the one that keeps me at it?
The joy of flowing words? Just for fun? To share with others? Because of aspirations to be published?
I ended up just saying it was for fun, but now I think its a combination. I started to write because of the joy of flowing words, about five years ago. I don't often tell people that I write, so few people have read any of it. Finally, I do want to be published someday, but every time I think about it I imagine it published under another name.
