But a question to the writers who post here;
Do you purposely sit down and write or type? Or do you do it on a whim? And what's most intriguing to me is: How do you get the courage to post it? |

The words are inside me before they go anywhere. I don't have a ritual of how they get out of me. If there is paper, I use it. If I am around a computer, I type it. Even better, if it's poetry, if I speak it into a device.
I just do it. It isn't about "courage" for me. I want criticism, which is the key to becoming better. Evaluating what you've got and rereading it over and over- looking for those grammar errors, the unintended contradictions, the typos, the places where you could've worded it a little better- is imporant. This gives me a chance to let it hang out there, come back to it, and look at it passively, and then activate trying to fix the minor problems of flow or lack of description. This place is a working ground. |
