It...I think I write because I can't NOT write. It's like sketching or painting or teaching. It just IS who I am and I sometimes can't contain it. I enjoy your writing so much Paula. You share a vast array of 'life's moments'.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5558905705479680839.post-62406392652981043142012-07-17T05:59:49.396-05:002012-07-17T05:59:49.396-05:00I cannot think of a time that I did not write, or ...I cannot think of a time that I did not write, or at least thought about writing. In my early twenties there was a historical romance of a heroine during the War Between the States in my mind. I even did research to make it historically feasible down to where the railroads were and the battle lines for a pivotal point in the story. I did not write it because I lacked confidence, somewhere along my way my research notes were lost. The plot has never left me though.<br /><br />I am a published writer of health-related articles which started because I had a health-related Internet business for which I did all the writing and a local publication was looking for regular submissions in exchange for an employee discount at their health food store. I have been submitting articles for around fourteen years and only a handful have ever been rejected, to my surprise!<br /><br />I blog because I enjoy keeping a journal of...well, just whatever I like to jot down: things that we are doing, memories, spiritual thoughts, reviews of what books I have read, desires, bits of wisdom I have learned on life's journey...just stuff. I enjoy reading my older posts and remembering the moments I have chronicled.<br /><br />I am also an artist and like to act, so I think writing is just another aspect of my creative nature that just will not, and probably should not, ever be contained, but certainly tempered by my Lord.seekingmyLordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03242380845994448311noreply@blogger.com
