But I do write. Every day I show up on my couch, occasionally with pants, and I write. I write out scenes that are dancing through my head. I write in the voice of characters that only exist in my dream world. I often get up in the middle of the night to write something that I dreamed about. I enjoy most minutes, though I guess I bitch a lot about it, which is why he asked.
I am a creative person by nature. I really enjoy taking pictures, drawing, writing, and calligraphy. I enjoy dancing around my house, singing at the top of my lungs, pretending to be anywhere but here. I always had imaginary friends growing up and we had some epic conversations. Even today I will talk out loud when writing a conversation between my characters. This lets me hear if it sounds natural or forced. It gives me so much information.
So after I sat and thunk about why I write, I couldn't help but asking him why he invents. He didn't have an answer either. I think we are at a happy understanding. I will not ask him why he invents and he will not ask me why I write. I think it makes us both happier.
Until Next Time.
