Oh, gos...I love those photos. And Sel Silverstein!<br /><br />Oh, gosh... That's actually something I've been thinking about recently, and I'm still coming up with an answer. I think... I write because I want to tell stories. My head's full of 'em, and I want to get them down.

Maybe I'm scared they aren't as beautiful as I see them, maybe I'm worried other people won't be able to see what I see... maybe, and I think it may be, that I just can't stand to see them written out and no longer be able to dream them out. So I settle for writing every minuscule detail that happens in my life :).<br />YOU WOULD DO IT TOO, now I don't feel as bad for that thought of using you, hahahahaha!<br />Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I'm so happy I finally ...Writing is my life. <br /><br />I'm so happy I finally decided to take the plunge and try it . . . for the longest time, I held back because I was so afraid the stories in my head wouldn't be "good enough." But one day, two summers ago, I threw all that out the window and just started writing some stuff down. And I've never stopped since. IT'S WAY TOO MUCH FUN. <br /><br />One day we will alllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll be famous authors and we can all get together and flail and fangirl and scream over each other's books. It's gonna happen. I feel it in my bones. <br /><br />*virtual high-five* <br /><br />Katie Hannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06818413749107653398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6522671761545702109.post-108750158176203462017-02-05T11:24:30.554-05:002017-02-05T11:24:30.554-05:00So, I have just been waiting for you to ask this q...So, I have just been waiting for you to ask this question! ;)<br />Why do I write? Well, I try to always write for God's glory alone, but other times it helps me clear my mind, get my creativity down on paper (more like electric paper), and to express myself. It's a talent that God has given me and I really, really enjoy it. <br />Oh my goodness gracious that poem is my Shell Silverstein! I love his poems, I have almost all of his books!<br /><br />Amelia<br />xxx <3milliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02655978536314419279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6522671761545702109.post-24924710062380604832017-02-04T22:59:27.824-05:002017-02-04T22:59:27.824-05:00Well, I could comment about how I don't write ...Well, I could comment about how I don't write novels or anything, but I understand the fact that words touch almost all of life, and writing, at least in my journal, is one if those things that I truly don't think I could do without. <br />But actually, I'm just commenting because I was reading through your post and the comments and saw again your promise of a virtual ice cream cone for every comment.<br />And I thought, wouldn't it be awesome if somehow it could be real ice cream?!?!?!<br />And then I thought... actually, that would be bad for you, because you'd have to buy ice cream for me at about 3 o'clock every day, and that would be expensive for you.<br />*really wants ice cream now*Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15395983860658323225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6522671761545702109.post-83741190277446867652017-02-04T21:26:24.121-05:002017-02-04T21:26:24.121-05:00LOL, sadly I can't post a lot of my writing on...LOL, sadly I can't post a lot of my writing online anymore.
