Obviously now I'm blogging most days, although I've pretty much giving up creative writing. I guess I just don't feel creative enough for it, ha!Shoshanahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15707241263291051104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1112065358549799390.post-82932798255349440142011-10-21T14:01:23.053-05:002011-10-21T14:01:23.053-05:00I write because it is therapeutic.

And the bonus of blogging is making awesome new friends :)Marisa A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05695217912332670387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1112065358549799390.post-5340069699169280182011-10-20T10:32:06.053-05:002011-10-20T10:32:06.053-05:00I spend a lot of my day writing between my job, fr...I spend a lot of my day writing between my job, freelance work and the blog. I have a journalism degree so I guess it makes sense :) I absolutely love writing and definitely consider it - and my blog - my creative outlet. <br /><br />Great post :)Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05185652640389232120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1112065358549799390.post-63809177123180085452011-10-20T08:35:17.988-05:002011-10-20T08:35:17.988-05:00The documentation is definitely my favorite part o...The documentation is definitely my favorite part of blogging - especially because I have a dreadful memory, so without putting my life to paper I'd probably forget half of it!Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01286546266415945733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1112065358549799390.post-40828814646629293352011-10-20T07:13:53.728-05:002011-10-20T07:13:53.728-05:00I write for several reasons.

It's good to get into the habit; I know my journal writing has gone the way of the dodo these days! <br /><br />I also love photography. I am still learning, but it sure is fun!Kyria @ Travel Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05889638304509763419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1112065358549799390.post-82293297920911778512011-10-20T06:44:09.868-05:002011-10-20T06:44:09.868-05:00I consider blogging my creative outlet.

I love seeing how the words pour out and then rearranging to create something even more meaningful.Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09026566759989208220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1112065358549799390.post-25577445087273436052011-10-20T06:29:09.339-05:002011-10-20T06:29:09.339-05:00I just answered this question on Mandy's blog!...I just answered this question on Mandy's blog! I basically said I write to connect with others and with myself; to capture the emotions of moments in my life; to sort through life. And for a whole lot of other reasons!<br /><br />I don't really have a creative outlet... My writing style is not at all creative so I don't think of my blog as my creative outlet... I would say knitting, but I am following a pattern, so I don't think that happens! So maybe piano playing will be my new creative outlet!Lisa from Lisa's Yarnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05335500882510597919noreply@blogger.com
