And to paint, play the piano, and explore.
I wrote a poem once about a man with a mole on the end of his nose. I'm waiting for it to go viral on the internet before I write another one. : )
I dislike writing even though I won 7th place in a major newspaper essay contest. (they said there were 1000 other entries) Not bad for a mediocre English student in high school. I ate prime rib at the awards dinner.
Yes, I'm a compelled writer myself. Even as a kid I was thrilled with a gift of a new writing pad and mechanical pencil/leads. Most kids thought that was a dumb gift. They knew they could bring it to me.
It was a thrill for me, as a kid, to scrounge up enough money to buy 500 sheets of typing paper and use my sister's toy typewriter.
Yup.
Piano was gifted to me....writing not so much (thinks back to the one time I attempted to write a science fiction story).
