Whew... Posting for 24 days in March has changed my writing process a bit. I began the month with pure emotion, and ended searching for a reason to write. Writing always seems to be on the back burner, but this month I had ideas that became priorities. I wrote this month for so many reasons. I wrote to grieve. I wrote to relive. I wrote to reflect. I wrote to debrief. I wrote to preserve. I wrote to share. I wrote to interact. I wrote for feedback. I wrote to experience. I wrote to prove that I could.
I'm so grateful to everyone that read and commented. I truly didn't understand how powerful another person's comment about my writing could be. I didn't realize how powerful writing could be for grief. I didn't realize how hard the last week would be to find something "new" to share.
So, without further ado, I hope everyone enjoys their Spring Break. I thank you for reading my posts and sharing your lives with me. Until SOLC Tuesdays....
I think you have gained a lot of wisdom about the difficulty of writing. Many of us Slicers found it difficult (I think I missed a day) to find something significant to write. I'm sure those who opened up my post one morning to find that I had written about banana-induced guilt thought I was off my rocker. Often I would go back and read Ruth's definition of what a slice is, and that would give me new eyes.
ReplyDeleteI have new admiration for authors of novels, short stories and plays as I've gone through the month. I think we're all kind of relieved the dailiness is over.
Happy Writing--See you next year!
