The Emotional Form of Writing

In the past few days/weeks, I haven't been inspired to write or to do much at all. When I get to my lowest point, I feel that writing cannot help clear my thoughts. So, the discussion topic for this blog is to allow you, my audience, to understand when I feel that it is best to write.

I feel that it is best to write when you are extremely happy or motivated. When an idea comes to mind that you are sure that it's a great one,  use it, write, and develop it. Take that idea and make the absolute best of it--in order to inspire the world. Create a masterpiece, that people will/would read and feel a great sense of inspiration--allowing them to escape! Use detail in your work, but make the language easy, for all ages. Create beauty, hope, love, etc. And remember to edit.

I will admit, I'm not the best of writers. In all reasoning, I'm a decent poet; although, I want to improve with my writing skills, and possibly go farther than I've ever imagined. Do not think that I want fame, I don't. I just want to inspire a small group of people with a poem or short story. I want to make people happy--that is my main objective with writing. Thus is why I feel that I must write when I'm in a good mood. If you write when you're sad or depressed or confused, do not tend to write for others, but for yourself; sadness or depression brings out the darker thoughts/feelings. So, before I close, I want to say: if you lack hope of becoming a writer, don't; anyone can be a great writer with an idea and a lot of editing.
