What does being a writer mean to you? Letting out emotions and stitching your soul on the blank paper creating a wondrous tapestry of words. That's what we do when we write, right? What makes the blood and ink flow together in your veins? Explain as vividly as possible! Prose and poetry both are accepted~

I get to create!

The best things in life are free,

But you can give them to the ...

Nah! Just kidding.

But not really.

But, kind of.

To be honest, I do approach writing in a professional manner: Turn up, do my best, push through blocks, learn, set deadlines etc.

Like now - I have approximately twenty minutes left of my lunch break and I will press that 'publish' button before I rip myself away from this world and submerge myself back into the realm of financial accounts and income tax returns.

Inspiration knows I'll be here.

It knows I will be true to my word.

So it turns up and is comfortable enough to speak.

Comfortable enough to explore what's inside.

Explore what I should have said...

how she should have acted...

what they really feel...

what I believe...

what does genuine wholeness look like?...

life as it may yet be known...

Comfortable enough to give wings to irrepressible hope.

At least I hope it does.
