Dear Fellow Writers,
Before you put fingertips to keyboard, let me clarify the question. I'm not asking 'why did you write your latest (novel, story, poem, essay, textbook, or whatever)?'. That kind of question usually leads one to rationalize, frequently with a significant slant toward promoting sales. What I'm asking here is: what compels us to write, rather than (sing, paint, needlepoint, act, dance, sculpt, or whatever), as our preferred form of creative expression?
Looking forward to your responses, I remain,
Writefully Yours,
Tony
