National Day on Writing

October 20 is known as the National Day on Writing. It was created by the National Council of Teachers of English, who felt writing is critical to literacy and needs greater attention and celebration. Everyone writes all the time, even if its something as simple or as short as an email or a text. For more information, you can visit the NCTE website. You can also post about this day on social…

Unleashing the Soul: What I Love Most About Writing

What do you enjoy most about writing? Introduction Writing is more than just putting words on a page; it’s an intimate dance between thought and expression, where each sentence carries a piece of the writer’s soul. For me, the greatest joy in writing comes from the profound sense of freedom it offers—a freedom to explore, to create, and to connect with the world in ways that are deeply personal…

Why I Write

Why I Write - Everyone's reasons for writing are different - here are mine. #WritingCommunity #amwriting #writerslife #WhyIWrite #writing

I have always loved to write. Even from the age of about five or six, I would rewrite my favourite fairy tales in my own words and try to invent different endings for them. The story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears had always been a particular favourite, and I always felt as though Goldilocks, with her brazen breaking and entering, got off with her crime scot-free. To make up for this, I would…

I write because I want to leave the last few traces of my existence, so someone could hold onto it when my memories wisp away. These souls who stumble over the odds of life- I want them to know that it is okay to be vulnerable, to breakdown, and, to love.

Writing brings me the ability to describe magic in near blurry words, to describe something so profound and miraculous. And just like that, something that seems extremely out of reach will someday sit softly on your palms. And you'd gaze at it wondering how'd it happen.

I write because I want at least one person to believe in the magic that I talk about. I want them to know that- you can only learn to get away if you learn to get through. And life, is not about filling every page with adventure and sharp memories. Some pages are meant to be blank, they’re simply about unwinding, being with yourself and nowhere else.

I write so it could help someone untangle the mess, and I write for it helps me to untangle the knots I’ve tied all across my soul.

Sometimes I wonder why I have so much self hate in my 30s, then my mom says stuff like "don't let your daughter ONLY like boy stuff or the boys won't ever date her because she's just 'one of the gang'" and my 'tomboy' ass remembers.

To be clear, though, fuck that. My daughter is whoever the hell she wants to be. Right now that's a werewolf who loves dinosaurs and the beach, so she's just going to keep on doing her own thing.

I have a lot to say

I am a writer

I can't simply say nothing

You ask me why I write

I want to do what I love

I want to provide an escape

I want to encourage myself

I want to protect creativity

I want to inspire people

And I want one's imagination to go wild

This is the goal of a writer.

Impetus - A poem #amwriting #WritingCommunity #poem #poetry #writerslife #WhyIWrite #poetrycommunity #writercommunity #Impetus

Hi everyone, I’m sharing another poem with you today. The inspiration for this one came from the question, ‘why do you write?’ to which my mind threw up a multitude of answers – the most prominent being that I write for clarity. I write to understand and to be understood, and it also helps to order my thoughts. Anyway, here’s the poem, I hope you enjoy it! Impetus I bring myself to the literary…

How I became a writer.

A story of blessing in disguise

When I lost the most precious love I was so attached to. It was not hard to leave another thing behind: the EGO. I knelt down and surrendered to something greater than myself.

A miraculous event happened. My Intuition — the internal GPS — took over my practical mind and led me to follow my heart to the tropical island where the story “Wild Love Holy Island” has taken place.

This Is Why I Write

Ever since I was a child, I enjoyed writing; It is an outlet for me to release the emotions I have inside me, especially when I do not wanna burden people with my emotions.

Growing up, I love keeping diaries and journals.  There, I would write everything that makes me happy. My everyday endeavors are well-detailed, my kilig moments with my crushes are written using my pink glitter pen, my fights with my best friends and how we managed to reconcile after. My notebooks filled with my adventures became my price possessions.

Now that I'm a young adult, though exhausted with hand-written shenanigans, I still wanna write and be able to express my feelings. Thus, this blog. I still write about all sorts of things in here, but now it is mostly about the things that make me sad, the friendships I have lost, the heartbreaks I have encountered and overcome.

I have realized how true the words of Anne Frank are. "Paper is more patient than people". Instead of boring them with my 3AM chaotic thoughts, Instead of blabbering, unsure if the other person understands-- I release them through words.

I used to write for fun. Now, I write to keep myself sane from all the emotions I wanna subdue...
