Sometimes
I write for fun, other times I write because I am obligated to do so.
Writing is hard; sometimes no matter how hard I try, the sentences don’t
come to me, the words don’t flow into coherence, and I just sit there
wondering why I can’t write. For some things, this is a huge liability. I
have trouble writing timed essays because although I want to write, I
often cannot coagulate my thoughts into an answer to a prompt. I write
cohesively given time, but not anywhere fast enough to churn out a good essay in 25 or 45 minutes.
I enjoy writing for entertainment; I like seeing people smile or laugh after reading something I wrote, or do more research on an interesting tidbit that I slipped into a blog post (wombats poop cubes). I still have trouble writing quantity, but the bits that I do write I try to write well.
