“Good writing is about telling the truth” ~ Anne Lamott
Our Best Material Is Within Us.
We know the truth about ourselves. The longer we live the more exposure to life and events. Some more memorable, some you want to forget, others funny, some you may not want to repeat. But they are your collection of life events.
You have opinions about everything, people, places, the earth, climate, current events, past events, oh I bet even some events in the future.
Be authentic; do not be a fake version of yourself. Write about what you know, what you like, or what you are thinking.
Write about what is inside your head lodged in your mind just waiting to get out in the world, write it down, edit it and then the most important thing published it and let the world see what you think. Some may agree, others may disagree. If you do not get to the published stage, you will never know what people thing. One more thing publish it.
