clare_dragonflyA writing meme, courtesy of jjhunter. There's 31 questions, one for each day in May.
Why do you write?
This is a really tough question to answer. I think for the writers friending meme I said something like 'because I have to," which is sort of true but sort of not... because I can actually go days without writing. I guess the real answer is that there's all this stuff in my head--stories and people and places and things--and I don't know what will happen to them if they don't get out. Maybe they'll rot and stink, like a dream deferred. Maybe they'll just die, and then I'll feel guilty, because they're real even if they're just in my head. Maybe they'll build up until the pressure in my mind is too intense and then I'll go crazy.
