“Umm, yeah, in fact I’m in the middle of writing a book with my best friend. And I’m a book reviewer, so I write a lot of reviews. And I blog…”
“Oh that’s cool. You’re writing a book? Cool…”
I was asked this question Sunday at church. The guy obviously had no idea what he was asking.
Do I like to write?
The answer to that would be yes.
Very much yes.
Like, you’ve no idea.
I write everyday for many hours a day. It may not always be the chapter of a book, but I am constantly writing. Whether it be a review, blog post, journal, email…I’m always writing. Ok not always, but when I’m not writing, I’m thinking about what I could write next.
I love writing. LOVE it.
Katy is my writing companion(and boy is she awesome!). We’re in the middle of writing a novel called Scattered Tears. It takes place in 460 AD Persia during the time King Artaxerxes reigns. It has been tons of fun to write so far, and I eagerly anticipate seeing it complete.
That’s the cover I made for fun a ways back. It’s not my favorite book cover I’ve pieced together, but I still think it’s kinda cute. The one I designed for Katy is way cuter. Maybe I’ll get her permission and show it to you some time.
Anyway…back to the beginning subject.
I write.
I love writing.
Writing is a hobby.
Writing is a way of living.
Writing allows you to see the world through different eyes.
Writing is not always, in fact is almost never, fun.
Writing is almost always, though, enjoyable.
I’m a writer. Are you?
