Writing occurs spontaneously without instruction
Your mind has no idea
that your heart
is helping you put
the words to paper
Whether it comes out in the form of
a lengthy story,
an eloquent poem,
a single sentence
or a simple word
The heart pushes our choice of words
to the forefront
to help us create
the act of writing prose
a natural phenomenon
Bring it upon yourself
to take in the
sights and sounds
and especially the memories
of the people around you
in order
to formulate the words
that will evoke true emotions
of your prose
The words writers choose
to create their prose
crave the connection
to the hearts and minds
of their readers
Writing is the craft of progression, not perfection.
Writing is a journey
that’s not instant or passive
and
it is not completely result oriented
It’s a process of
delayed gratification
It’s an ongoing routine
that takes consistent training
over months and even years
Though the result is creating
art through your words,
the real reward is
the blueprint to perfecting your craft
and
the person that you become
To show up persistently
and put forth the effort,
it’s what you as a writer does
because that’s your nature
Someone willing
to expose and share
your emotions and heart
through prose
When you are writing
and the words
flow through you
You’re on a higher plane,
you have clarity of purpose
You strive
to get your message
out into the world
To touch the untapped minds
of those
who are ready to see
the true beauty
of the written word
and make known
the meaning,
the elegance,
the exquisite
craft of prose
“Our words inspire people to dream.”
