Why I Write

I write because I can't sing. I write because I can't trip over the letters of the written word while trying to articulate a point. Moreover I write because I have a story tell. There is no other method of storytelling which can hope to delve into the imagination with as much or as little detail as the originator desired to convey. The written word remains unchanged as it passes from person to person, maintaining its message, humor, or meaning through time. A movie could never hope to describe feelings or thoughts as deeply. I write so as to hold my meaning, to let others interpret only what I leave up to interpretation, and to entertain. After all, who doesn’t love a well-written piece?
