| Topic | What makes u write? |
| Message | I would like to hear from some of you on what makes you write? I am 60 years old and I write to keep my mind active. If I didn’t keep it active I would be out on a street corner talking to myself and doing wrong things. Now what makes you write?

| Message | An overwhelming urge to get the thoughts out of my head. Maybe it’s some sort of Schizophrenia but when the words come I have to write them. |

| Subject | Idle Writing... |
| Message | Sometimes...when I feel emotionally stressed and I’m not sure how to handle a situation I hide out from my real world and put my hands on the keyboard and close my eyes and spill my thoughts through my fingertips.
Othertimes...when I see something so simple that it’s beautiful I just want to share it with everyone who will listen or read and I try to describe what I remembered seeing that’s now in my minds eye... Mostly...when I’m done and I actually visualize the black and white letters and words I become consumed with editing and rearranging and sorting until I like, or almost like, what I see. I’m not usually that good...but, it feels great to leak stuff out of my head, because if I don’t...I’ll be sharing that street corner with you! LOL! Thanks for asking! Kimmy |

| Message | I enjoy expressing my anger, hate, or joy into a tangible form, and sometimes get brilliant ideas in my head I feel I simply need to express. |

| Message | I think of the positive things in life and people. I don’t think negative as there’s always a positive in a negative. I think with a child’s mind, or at least I try. Creativity dies when you grow older. I will try to delay it. |

| Message | No reason to keep it confidential. Crisis. Personal Crisis. Or an image I see that echoes with meaning and grace, personal experiences of Grace. That is what makes me write. |
