writing has always been how i
come to terms with my emotions
even before i wrote poetry every morning
i would analyze things through personal essay
and even before i was intrigued by a writing major
i was writing-creating things
constantly:
scenes
lists of characters
concepts
a single piece of dialogue
just a whole bunch of names i loved
while those might not be the
standard journal-to-figure-out-ones-feelings kind of writings
i think they were my way of figuring things out
in my brain — lists to organize the chaos
constantly thinking in theatre
ideas upon ideas upon ideas
maybe that’s what i should do as a writing challenge;
find one of the concepts i created as a child
and see how far i get in the process of fully committing to it
and creating it
and making it come to life as a fully fleshed-out piece
[whatever kind of writing that may be]
as an adult…
that could be fun…!
