I Need Time To Write
Quite often on Medium, I see writers publishing an article every day or two. Then I read their articles and I understand why: they are shit.
But that’s fine.
Everyone is free to do whatever they feel best. But since some people got in touch asking me why I don’t publish “very often” (despite throwing something out approximately once a week) I feel the need to address the elephant in the room. The truth is
I need time to write
I often insist on the fact that I am not “gifted”, and I do not write to create engagement; I write because I enjoy it and because I prefer to spurt these thoughts out instead of keeping them in my prefrontal cortex. End of story.
But I need time. I need to live in order to write, to experience, to suffer, to think deeply, to analyse, to discuss, to read, to get upset and to cry in order to do it. All this requires a certain amount of time. Therefore if you see that I am not publishing stuff, I am probably thinking deeply about a subject, or most likely, scratching myself and living, waiting for something to happen. So just be patient, or don’t.
Thank you, Dear Reader.
