Your Writing Belongs To You, But It’s Not FOR You
The realization I had that completely changed my writing for the better
Writing isn’t something that most of us choose, it chooses you.
SUPER cliche, but IYKYK
You know who you are.
For some, the weapon of choice was the composition notebook and a Pilot G-2.
For others, it’s the iPhone notes that do the trick.
Regardless, when you have words overflowing out of your soul, you really don’t have a choice on what you have to do.
You have to write.
Don’t you dare try to run from that gift. Because that’s what it really is; a gift.
Your mind works differently than the rest.
You process the experiences you’re going through as blogs you want to write.
You find yourself mid-conversation with friends and family putting together catchy titles for the article you just thought about from the thing your friend said 5 min ago.
In the actual present conversation, you have NO idea what they are saying because you’ve already started writing the piece in your head.
