I Used To Be A Writer by G50member(m): 6:01pm On Apr 14, 2013 |
Time was when I used to write and write well. My english teachers and friends who read me always admired my writing skills. Of course I had no plans for my skills so recently it occured to me I had forgotten what it was like to write. I pondered on what happened then I remembered I grew up and while I hussled in order to find my feet in life, I forgot to write. Lately however as I read some very serious writers hear in the mold of breathing, molly, ishilove, mazi and plenty others, am wondering if I can write again. What do you think? |

G-50 member:Yes you can. If it's in you, it will flow out when it's time. The secret about writing is consistency. Take a pen and write a paragraph daily. The subject could range from your thoughts, the day's happenings, memories etc. If it is in you, it will begin to flow out of its own accord. 1 Like |
