How many of us really spend out time in writing. Writing is such a wonderful hobby that once we try to sharpen our skills it takes hus into new heights. Writers never tend to while away their time in other pursuits. They always make best use of their pen. Trying our hand at writing articles to begin with is not a bad idea I suppose.

You are definitely right. Writing is a great hobby indeed. The great thing about writing is that you can express what you feel and there are no limits. Many people are using their talent and skill for writing to make money. There are also a lot of sites that accepts written articles that you can gain. I am starting out with these thing although I am not very good at it. But at least I have started. I hope to improve and hone my skills on writing.

Writing as a hobby, I love the idea of writing as a hobby but then you have to go by the actual protocol or it's not considered a good article.... I will probably continue trying to get it down to a science though. I love being able to write freehand which means whatever comes to mind, without having to actually worry about using the correct grammar and punctuation marks........... Almost all good writers go back over their articles over and over many times......... this is what I do not like doing..... I know it has to be right and I'm somewhat of a perfectionist but man..... Once you write it the first time or two then I feel like it get boring after a while to keep having to go back.........what do you think? Will you keep on trying until you write the next bestseller?

Yes writing is a great hobby and it's actually one of my favorite hobbies. We are all always thinking and I believe that a good way to express what we're thinking is to write it down. There are so many different ways of writing like books, novels, poems, lyrics, and a lot more. I think that we should all write because we all have a different point of view then everyone else because we are the only people that have our minds.

Writing is my favorite hobby, and I hope it will be a career someday. I like to write poetry especially. You can't make a lot of money writing poetry, but I enjoy it anyway and love when people read and comment on my work. I also like writing short stories and articles. I write fanfiction too, in my spare time.

Easier said than done. Many are of the impression that just take pen and paper and start writing. That is absolutely a wrong notion. Before you take up writing as a hobby you need to have prior knowledge of the things. This is not every one's cup of tea. Writing could turn great hobby only then when there is a creative bent of mind of the person concerned. Or else the whole would get stuck in the rut and throwing away pen and paper you are emancipated for another vocation.
