Day 16

Why do you write?

Answer this through showing, not telling. Don't just list the reasons why, show the audience why writing is important to you and what it means.

Challenge: Write a fictional story that tells why you write without having anything to do with writing. Ex: You write because you want to make life better for people so you show this through a story about a selfless doctor. Something like that.

Tip: Start by jotting down the reasons that you write. From there, find the points in the list that inspire you to write a poem, story, memoir, anything. And just write.

Ready. Set. Write.
