A Writers View

I write to get to know Me

Lying still. His pen on him the papers by his side, he listened carefully to the rhythm of his heart, the perfect coordinated beats originating from this little organ.

The blood flowing through his veins, charging up like little sparks of electricity. Adrenaline rush, he couldn't control it. His brain was on a wave, shaking; something they call a brainstorm, the words kept coming. God i might run insane. The pen settled on his hands, never leaving until the paper was filled.

He opened his eyes, reading out loud word after word, he couldn't believe he just wrote that. Every word combined in some kind of way; it was speaking to him.

What is writing? Who is a writer?

Then he realized a writer wasn't that someone who writes to speak out his thoughts to other persons, for christsake that would be an artist. Instead he wrote to speak to himself in ways he hadn't before... whoever else it spoke to was just an unavoidable coincidence. 

Author's Note

"I wrote this?!" i get to that after every piece of junk i lay down...
and half writers do it, it's a kind of Eureka. Believe me.

I agree with you though I don't really write to talk to myself.

[dicey jones]

Maybe you don't...
But your writing surely has to speak to you

[Junert]

That I agree.

I get what you're saying. Sometimes I have nothing. But BAM!! three minutes later I get an idea so awesome, I end up writing the whole day. Then, the next day, I reread them and think, "Who wrote this?!" Sometimes it sucks, sometimes it doesn't. It's like someone tells you to write and you are just their way of communicating. Like a ghost and a medium.
