Well hello!
As promised, I have to answer that same question - why do I write?
I started to write a blog last year to remind myself that I wasn't alone in the world, sitting alone in my basement with no windows.
I continued writing to see if I still had the ability to tell a story.
Now, I write to share myself and because I've become a small part of this large group of amazing people. Like Scarlet said, I want to learn about everyone. My circle of friends has expanded amazingly quickly. And, my long time friends get to hear about things they don't always get to over lunch or 5 minute phone calls.
I write because I'm feeling silly, content, stressed out or confused. I write to purge pain, to share joy and to say hello.
So, HELLO!
Hello!!!
ReplyDeleteHell no, you aren't alone!!!
I write because I always have stuff to say, and I am a somewhat entertaining fellow! :)

You are a writer...plain and simple. You have something to say, it's worth reading and I like the way you put your words together to tell a story.
ReplyDeleteHello back PG, and you definitely aren't alone in why you blog !
ReplyDeleteI have met some very nice friends that way.
Hiya. :)
ReplyDeleteI find there's always something to share. Often I don't write about my own life, just something I've read, something that touched me and I hope it touches someone else too.
I've made some wonderful blogging friends over the years, but I've lost some too.:(
I love it that you are posting frequently! You really should meet the friend I wrote about in the blog yesterday. She's a real gem :)
ReplyDeleteHello !!!
ReplyDeleteI write for readers including myself.

ReplyDeleteScarlet: Thank you - that means boatloads coming from you!
L Annie: Thanks for coming by. I can't wait to hear about England.
Joey: In you I have found a kindred soul. Your stories always make me smile or cry.
RK: That friend, she sounds like a firecracker!!! I love fun people. And I loved you telling me I seemed more relaxed than in a long time. Made my day!!!
Hobo: Welcome! I peeked at your blog and was inspired by a number of things. Thank you for visiting.
Well, HELLO right back! :-)
ReplyDeleteAny friend of Scarlet's and Riot Kitty's is a friend of mine. I have only had my Word Garden for a year, and I would be lost without the friends I have made through blogging.
