Oh yes... How true this is!
Writers write anywhere. Including in their head. Plotting, planning, penning airborne phrases. At any given notice. While eating dinner, walking, or most frequently - in the middle of talking to other people.
When the Muse beckons, we must follow.
Please forgive us. We don't mean to be rude! It's just an occupational quirk. And not a passive daydreamy escapism, but an active working one. Which can yield the best kind of results!

Hey Siobhan,
ReplyDeleteI just writing my blog about 4 months ago and I've discovered a love for writing that I thought I had left in school.
I think about writing all the time and it's good for me as I'm fighting a battle against anorexia/bulimia.
Instead of thoughts of food and numbers, I try to think of characters and stories.
I mostly write about my struggles and it really helps.
Lovely blog by the way x
Hi Ruby, thank you so much for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you've rediscovered your love for writing! It is a powerful process. And I firmly believe it helps us so much too. It fine-tunes our ability to process things, and also our means of expression.
It's also all-consuming so I hope that it does fill your mind with all its wonders and ways and help you with your struggles.
Keep writing! :)
