For some reason I feel ashamed admitting this - I wonder why?

It makes me feel very serious about this writing business, and there's something comforting about not being able to easily read what I've just written. It means I don't re-read and obsess over getting things right, but just keep moving on, down the page..SFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15847565982538951065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3367997384893777621.post-87844730858159825752010-01-22T04:38:11.260+00:002010-01-22T04:38:11.260+00:00Absolutely.

While I didn't (and don't) write fiction, I kept hand-written journals for many years, before destroying them all for fear someone would read them after I died. As if it would matter to me then, somehow. But I think the flow of creativity can be better with a pen and paper--at least for those of us old enough to have grown up without computers.<br /><br />But my penmanship now, though not quite as bad as that of a doctor, isn't particularly neat. So much of me was tidier when I was younger.<br /><br />My dad, however, does calligraphy from time to time, mostly in his greeting cards. Lovely.<br /><br />Good luck deciphering your writings! :-)Keahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06809655107065918944noreply@blogger.com
