writing...

lately, writing, whether it's for the magazine or the paper, has become kind of a chore. i feel like i've lost my muse and have had trouble finding my voice.

then, i came across these quotes about writing and am starting to remember why since I can remember, this is all i've wanted to do. when i was younger, i wrote novels and poetry books for everyone as presents. i tried to write my autobiography when i was 8. i guess...i am a writer.


"Writing is the only thing that, when I do it, I don't feel I should be doing something else."
- Gloria Steinem

"Write something to suit yourself and many people will like it; write something to suit everybody and scarcely anyone will care for it."
- Jesse Stuart

"I can’t help but to write, I have a inner need for it. If I’m not in the middle of some literary project, I’m utterly lost, unhappy and distressed. As soon as I get started, I calm down.:
- Kaari Utrio
