This is one of my favorite articles that you've written to date.
I am the writer I want to be at this moment while knowing I'm not yet the writer I can be.
I hope this is always the case.
Why? Because I'm in the game and learning as I go. That's what matters to me. If I felt like I was "done", had nothing left to learn, it would probably be time to move on from trying to be a writer. The desire is in the doing. Some questions can only be answered through doing and I think you raised a great one.
Your article made me think deeply about why I am doing a thing I'm doing. Does that matter to the writer you want to be?
Hi Bruce,
First of all, wishing you a full and fast recovery.
Second, "Are you the writer you want to be?"
(Dunno!)
I'll do some free writing and deep thinking about the type of write I want to be.
Thanks for this wonderful prompt.
I do want to be humorous and entertaining and witty and engaging and persuasive.
So there's that.
*By the way, where are the slide decks about which we have heard so much?*
Many smiles and much metta,
