I Write

Of the many genres associated with creative writing, I am personally excited for non-fiction, as it has always been my favorite genre to read when I have gotten the chance to do so. Non-fiction, as a whole, has a wide variety of genres within itself, and is definitely something that many writers go for regularly. This variety is what I like most about the genre, as well as the interesting narratives, short stories, etc. that come from it. Although all writing brings in personal thoughts and experiences, I feel as though non-fiction does this in a great way. Authors writing non-fiction, in my own reading experiences, have put small pieces of themselves, their memories, and those around them into their works while also turning it into something more. This personal touch is what brings me to love non-fiction, and writing in general, so much.

Getting into the habit of writing regularly will get anyone’s creative thoughts flowing, as well as help them become better writers in general. Personally, I cannot say that my writing habits are very constant, I struggle to get myself to write creatively, or sometimes just in general, once a week, if even that. My goal, however, is to get myself into the habit of looking for reasons to stop and write. Maybe I see the trees blowing in the wind a certain way so I stop to write down ways to describe what that looks like, or maybe I see a color I like so I try to explain it. Whatever it may be, I want to find inspiration around me in all situations, and get into the habit of writing more to better myself and my writing skills.
