I write, it's what I do and what I've done for decades. I have piles of poetry, self-introspective diatribe, short stories, half baked ideas and one fully completed novel that I have posted partially on fanfiction.net. Writing is not only a passion of mine, it is a catharsis that bleeds out a great deal of the frustration of everyday life. An escape that calls to me with the fury of a drug addiction, minus the physical detriment (except, of course, the occasional sleep deprivation). Weather or not it takes me anywhere other than the screen of this and other computers is not as important as always having the ability and need to write for me. Without the words and ideas to inspire myself (and sometimes others) I would have little purpose.
