Some people write for the same reasons, some people don't.
What are yours?
Share them here if you like.
Is it for money? For fame or glory? To be immortalized in the annual of history?
Is it for Joy? For pleasure of the craft? or maybe the carvings of good decent pros?
Or is it to savor a fantasy of your making? Is it for a moment's escape from this world?
Is it for catharsis to cauterize a wound in your heart?
Is it to change the world? Make others see what worlds could be rather than what we see?
Or that infectious emotion to share and to inspire others?
No? Is it to shower the world in a truth, a true dark shade of a world you see?
What I yearn~ for is that single narrative moment, where threads of story are grown and cultivated until it blooms into a single crescendo.
That satisfaction, that narrative perfection of 'making sense" is what I run towards.
Not that I have succeeded,mind you.
But polishing my craft and working towards that moment in a story is what i strive for.
so, yes in a way I don't need to publish my stories, and for a long time I haven't, I wrote and wrote for myself, and my friends when they asked.
But now I am looking at a long web novel format, the reason being I want something that could at least glimpse some semblance of how traditional epics worked.
That Journey feeling, I want that.
For that I need endurance, and publishing it somewhere ensure some accountability to keep moving forward.
And then @Tony happened, coincidentally on the few days after I started putting my notes together Tony brought the hub to nuf,
