The Insecure Writers Support Group blogs on the first Wednesday of every month, which this time means fretting over who won the election. I’m writing this as...we still don’t know! Ahhhh!
Fortunately the group has a really easy question to ask this month, which is:
Why do you write what you write?
Ahhhh!
I have no idea how to answer this! I’m that idiot writer who when someone in the real world asks me what I write I can never give them a straight answer! Making that the toughest question! And this one the second toughest!
I try to write the ideas that interest me. They can usually be found in some genre context, but the catch is that most often I find myself caught up in the psychology of why this situation is happening.
So I guess I write what I write to try and figure things out, either for myself or for potential readers.
You're not defined by a genre which is good.
ReplyDeleteI try to mix it up.
DeleteGood answer 👏
ReplyDeleteOh, thank you.
DeleteI think that's ultimately why we all write.
ReplyDeleteHopefully!
DeleteI feel the same way. When people ask what I write, I never know how to answer.
ReplyDeleteI’m actually really happy to hear this.
DeleteI was going to add you to the IWSG list, but I can't find your email address.

DeleteI write because I enjoy it‽
ReplyDeleteNaturally! Hopefully!
