Writing, and what it never did for me.

I feel like crying. Writing has been a constant part of my life since the 6th grade, it is what I do and about the only thing that I allow myself to take pride in.

You complain about your inability to write in sheer poetry. Don't you dare imply that you can't write. Don't you dare. You can. You do. It isn't the ability to put words on paper that makes an author -- it's the ability to make the reader feel. And trust me, you do.

Don't worry about having a little trouble writing, either. It's called writer's block, and everyone gets it. I get it all the time. What you do is: "Write. When you feel like crap and look at what you've written and decide that it needs to burn and feel your identity being sucked away from under you, pick up a pen and put that emotion on paper. Write every day. Write on Sunday, on holidays, on Christmas, at gatherings with you family, in restaurants on napkins. You aren't allowed to stop writing just because you have a writer's block; it won't go away until you force it out the door. Write."

I'll read.
