I write about my thoughts and ideas. I share it to you (or the reader). 

​I am sending you a message.

You are motivated to write now. (I wish.) ​
​Writer, Joe Bunting, enjoys how reading has affected his writing. He has noticed three things about reading's relationship to writing:  Reading inspires, instructs, and connects.

I enjoy reading more than writing. (No pressure in reading.)  


​I find writing difficult. It takes time and effort. I must try my best in effectively communicating to you.   

​"Always proofreading, editing, and rewriting (for only one story or article)," my friend, Jon, told me. "It never ends." (No such thing as a "final draft.")

"I want to improve on my writing," I told Jon.

"Read book, On Writing Well," he answered. "Learn the basics in writing first. Keep reading too."

(I love to read now. I assumed writing was easy. I tried to copy how professional writers would write from reading their books. I had confidence. I skipped ahead. I forgot about the basics in writing.)

​My purpose in life is to keep learning too.
