Why I Write.

I write to free my mind. I write so that I can put my thoughts onto paper. I write to understand myself. By putting pen to paper, I’m allowing my hand to turn my thoughts into words and sentences. I’m able to create another world, by stepping out of my reality and stepping into a land of the unknown. Being able to find and create something beautiful. I write so that I can escape.

I write to give people freedom that I so crave, by reading words that create images and thoughts in your mind that take you to a place of distraction. I write to free my mind also, from my pain and my overthinking. It’s truly amazing what one can create just by placing one word next to another and then that leading to a sentence that someone could read and connect and relate to. That is powerful. That is why I write.

Evaluation: 

In this session I explored the question ‘Why I Write’ and gave my insight into why I personally write. I found this quite important for me especially as a writer because it allowed me to explore my mind and figure out and write down why it is I am a writer.
