Following the light...

So I have spent the past three or four months assessing the art of writing and trying to find my own process. This blog ended up being a big part of that. One of the most important things I have learned thus far is that there is no exact definition of the word writer. There does not exist one way to write. I have been entirely too stringent on myself in my pursuit of becoming this thing I wanted to be. This nonexistent thing that I created in my own mind. So stringent I couldn't see that I already am it. The way I know is not measured in numbers of pages or words or accolades. It is in the way I feel. So, in an effort to one, stop being so hard on myself, and two, start pooling my energies towards my other writing projects, I am cutting back a bit on my blogging. I will still keep this blog up, writing when the inspiration finds me. Some weeks it might be three times, some might be all seven days. But I feel I am focusing in only one direction, and I have so many directions I want to explore right now. The world is waiting...


Following the light.
