Am I the only one who always finds it easy to love Creatives and in this context Writers? This question sounds funny because I am a Writer too. I am a little bit bias but I believe it is easy to love a Writer.
Inspiration is everywhere….
Writers can be inspired by a leaking tape, a dusty pair of shoes or even a plate of food. Writers see beyond an image and an object and they let their imagination create a story. If all writers were to share their inspiration for every story you would have a good laugh and sometimes you would cry.
Our lives might mirror our stories
Sometimes when the world of a Writer is crushing they run to their blog to bleed and offload the burden. On our happy days, we create fictional stories that might reflect our happy jobs, happy relationships and their hearts being at peace. Writers also create stories in line with their fears, hopes and struggles. If you are close to a Writer you might be able to connect the dots to the Writer’s reality.
Dear Writer you understand me…
Stories from other Writers make one feel safe and realise that what they are going through isn’t unique to themselves. On some days Writers have a tonne full of inspiration and writing will be effortless. However, on some days a Writer does have the strength to write anything and it makes one feel sad because they wonder if they fell out of love with their craft.
How will you remember me?
At the end of the day, a Writer wants his or her work to make a difference in someone’s life. They want their work to be the reason why someone chose not to give up or why someone ended up making the right decision. Writers also hope that their work makes history and continue to touch lives when they have retired or when they take their last breath on earth.
Do you want to hear my story?
Lastly, each writer has a unique story of how the birth of their writing journey. For some people it was just a way to escape, a way to kill time or it all started in High School when they had a journal. Whatever the story is, what I can guarantee you is that the writers have evolved through the years and it has been quite an adventure!
