When people ask me why I like writing, I tell them it’s because I can express myself more authentically than by speaking out loud. Writing allows me to articulate my feelings of joy, awe, compassion, sorrow – all of my thoughts – in a way that feels right and true and genuine.
In that spirit, I invite you to write. Share your joy, your awe, your sorrows, your stories. Link to your blog in the comments, and respond to the work of fellow writers.

I clearly became a writer late in life thanks to this writing forum where I write (not as often as I wish) sort of regularly.
Thus the TC news had me thinking all kinds of thoughts.
This is my rant.
