Why I Write

A short manifesto...

Writing is a vacation from the real world.

Writing feels more real than anything, at times.

Writing feels like the only thing I can do.

Writing makes me feel like I’m not crazy.

Writing shows me how crazy I am.

Writing is beauty.

Writing creates something that wasn’t there before.

Writing is my method of exorcising my demons.

Writing is how I find heaven again.

Writing is beyond my passion, it’s my lifeblood.

But none of that answers the question of why.

It all comes down to this:

I am looking for real, pure, experiential truth.

Writing so happens to be my method.

Would you join me on this truthful journey?
