Why I write

Everyone who likes to write seems to have some kind of reason WHY they write, so here is my reason. To get away from it all.

What better way to travel than to read and write?  If I want to go to a magical garden, I pick up a book, and I’m there. Easy. I used to HATE writing. I Hated it until I went to summer school my 3rd going into 4th grade  summer . The teacher made us write a lot, and I learned that writing could be fun.  I’ve been writing ever since! I have a wild imagination, so that helps with my storytelling, and I write good poems.

My reason does sound weird, but really its so true. My 4rth grade summer I made up a whole entire world-all my own-that I’ve been working on ever since. Unfortunatly I never thought to write anything down on paper so its all in my head. Since I had all ready made that world, its easy to make up other ones. My best world that I LOVE is  named  Ecox the first one I made up. Its a magical world with humans as shape shifters, dragons, huge serpents,  100 foot trees~everything you can imagine (or just about) is on Ecox, including thieves, robbers and prisoners.

I can go on and on about Ecox (its been in my head for over two years…Would be an AWESOME book!) but i don’t want anyone to fall asleep on the computer. (Which is what I would probably do)   Writing helps me get out all these thoughts on paper, while putting me in different worlds  and places. Without books and paper, I don’t know what I would do!

So that is why I write.
