why write?


there are probably as many reasons to write as there are writers. 

all i know is that if i don't tell a story for me alone, i'll never tell the story that touches anyone else. if i don't write the story i love, no one else will love it. that's just the way i am.
thanks, Christine Danek, for posting this picture. it's part of my journey to finding the story i love.

I agree. So much of what we write comes from ourselves, so if we write for anyone else, it's just not going to have the passion that makes it great. If that makes any sense. :)

And the button looks great! Glad you liked it! :)

I'm sure you'll find the story you love, and it'll be an awesome find for readers out there!

Isn't that the truth!

Thanks for stopping by this morning, Michelle (or should that be michelle? LOL). I think this challenge is going to be loads of fun!

Hmm - I definitely think too much. Perhaps I should try to listen more to my heart?

Anyway, good luck with the A-Z :)

Great image, but I was just thinking: it's just as true the other way round :-)
