Is this 'my thing' or not?

I used to love to write. 
When I was younger I thought I wanted to be a writer but art caught my interest and I steered down another path.
Now. I try. Lord knows I try to write stuff that might intrest other people but quite frankly, my life is pretty dull. And the parts of my life that effectivly take up my time are not worth writting about. And some of what I have written about was probably better left unwritten.
You see, I figure anyone who can write... can really write well.... can make even the most mundane tale an interesting read. A good writer can, just with the use of words cause emotions to well up within the reader. Cause them to laugh, cry, feel anger,  frustration etc. just by skillfully and effectively stringing words together on a page.
I admire and congratulate all you true writers out there.
Bravo. The world would be a dull place without you.

  1. You seem sad. Chin up! I'm enjoying your blog. But the most important thing is, are you? I find mine therapeutic and fun. It also sets my mind to work, always thinking of the next subject, rather than just watching TV. It doesn't matter what me or anyone else thinks, though. You should follow your own bliss.
