Be it in the internet with blog and forums or in your dairy or notebook... Why do most people write? I can't say that i am a good writer or just to say that i am a writer because i think i'm not...I am my own critic to make things clear...I can't find the courge to post all my work or just make other people read it... maybe i'm afraid to hear their opinion about my writing or something but i do love to write though...i write about almost anything that comes to my mind...In writing i am able to express myself that i cannot do personally...i know must writers feel the same thing my only problem is i don't share my creation... i often makes letters to people but i don't send them... call me crazy but i often do that... just to let out the all the emotion that i have inside... so what about you???

I love to write to learn the language and its vocabulary. Writing also helps me to express my feelings clearly. In short we can just copy our hearts while writing.

Writing letters - How to pen down letters.
Yes, I agree with you ...in writing we feel like expressing ourselves in better way and can gather our thoughts to write...while speaking...the reaction time is too less. Writing, I believe is a mental exercise, which keeps our mind healthy and fit. I love to write letters, blogs and my thoughts on this kind of wonderful forums....without any hesitation...I know some may like it...and some may not like it. I would say, please do not be shy or afraid to send letters to your near and dear ones...no one is perfect...if suppose everyone here is writer...he/she must have some very good traits in writing and some very poor traits. Best of Luck to you. Keep writing.....for your sake and for the sake of others. My best wishes to you!

I love to write for a variety of reasons, when I journal I'm often trying for a stress release or to clarify my thoughts on a situation. When I write articles, its because I believe I have something to share, hopefully I make a few bucks at it, and hey I am very opinionated. I also love to write reviews, I write reviews on anything and everything, including food, restaurant service, books, movies and products. I want people to know about good deals, and also to save people from buying garbage products.

I have always been a writer and have always been told that i am a good writer, but i am very critical of my own work lol. Yeah i think writing is a form of release and something that lets you be creative or be yourself. You have just inspired me to post some of my novel somewhere....

yeah,i like to write,when i have a feeling,thoughts or another things,i will choose write this things on my diary or QQblog. Sometimes i will give vent to my feeling about everything.I think the most people will choose to write blog express they feeling,i think when i write my feeling and thoughts in my QQblog,i will feel better.when you feel boring the best way is looking for people to express your feeling.when i write my feeling,some one will share they thoughts with you.So i agree with you,the write is a good way to express your feeling.I like writing.

I love writing because it is a release. It is the one way I can truly express myself. It is the one way that I can think through anything that is bothering me.

We can confide anything that's been bothering us in writing and we can write anything without hesitations right?

I could say that same thing goes for me also. Writing is my way of expressing what I thought and what I feel. My blog is just purely personal stuff. I am not a good writer, though and I don't desire to be one. I just write freely and I am not fond of playing with words. For me, writing is an outlet, just like releasing emotions that could not be fully expressed. Just continue writing. Maybe then you could have the courage to let your close friends read your articles. It takes confidence and courage to accept their views. I think it's also an outlet for other people to write letters to people whom them wanted to talk to, but could not.

I express myself better in writing. Not necessarily in another language but I try my best in English. I prefer to write about things of my interests in my blog, when it comes to personal matters I keep it private. I'm not good at writing a story, like authors, unless it's something I can relate to personally then I won't find the right words or way to do it.

I write because it is my passion. I have been writing for most of my life. Writing my favorite form of communication. When I need to say something without being interupted I write it down. When you are speaking of something that may upset the other person or get them in some way excited, they may not be able to fully listen without interupting, so you write it, so that they can read it over and over and allow it to sink in. The thing that I write the most is poetry, but I have also wrote short stories and even a book once.

I like to write partly because I have a screaming creativity yelling at me and ask me to release it out. But I don't write my emotions as I do tend to write those when I am down, therefore, when I read it later, it would be all about the negative thoughts which I don't want to be reminded of. Now I am exerting that writing part of me into beauty writing, I guess it's much more objective and I still get to practice on my writing. I might try writing other stuff later in my life but I don't have a concrete plan. We are all the worst critics of ourselves and I surely understand why you wouldn't want to let others to read your stuff *laughs*

It started when I was grade five. I love to write about everything at the back of my notebooks. When my teacher or classmates sees they just make fun of me. But I got used to it. Until now that Im 4rth year highschool Im still writing and I found friends who write too. We just finished a book and named in Luv Letters. It was about teenage love and it has many stories because it was a compilation. I learned that my writing about everyting made me express my freedom of speech. So its ok that you write about anything because its like your door to your own world :)
