Why do you write?

Why do you write? Is it to relieve a creative itch or what?


For me, it's to relieve a creative itch and lately the creative itch isn't biting.

I write because I can't help it and its one of the only things I can do well. Plus it annoys some of my friends. Mean, right.
~peanut~

I write because I don't have a creative bone in my body, but when I realized that I could write, I was ecstatic with joy. And I get to call myself a writer. Sounds professional. xD

And I really love the look on peoples' faces (especially my adult friends) when they read something of mine and asks me who wrote it. And I get to answer confidently, "Me."

And plus, if I didn't write, my anger/emotions would have to go somewhere... I don't want to know what would happen if I didn't write.

I'm just glad I have the most supportive friends I could ask for. One of them is even begging me to go to Florida State, which is where she went, because they have a Creative Writing course there. I love having my own personal fan club.

I mostly write just to say that I wrote something. It's also a healthy way to vent anger and frustration and depression. Also, lets me stay up late.

Why not? Seems as good a pastime as any.

It's fun!

I enjoy it.

I'm too lazy for manual labour. ^_^

Uhhm, started writing because I had nothing better to do. Seriously. Then I got a good grade in my creative writing coursework by teacher, so started taking it uber-serious, with mad ideas about getting published one day. A bit ostentatious of me really, considering I've never finished a novel.
Mostly though because it's about the only thing I'm good at

Because I always end up coming back to it. And, I love seeing the story unfold. Now if only I could end some of these novels...

Because if I didn't, I'd surely die. Not in the physical sense, more metaphorically.
