Passion for Writing?—Explains the love and sincerity of the author, in working towards his goal.
Writers are passionate creatures for, if they are don’t truly love writing, it is near impossible to be a good writer. Days are spent huddling over a keyboard, scooping out portions of their soul and imagination. Writers are among the fortunate few who are doing something they love.
We do see how, in some writers, passion seeps through into their pages, feeling tangible, electric and contagious. This kind of passion comes only through the best when we step aside and get out of our way to write. Chances are you could be an exquisite writer by tapping into the passion of being yourself.
Writing can define part of you, but it shouldn’t describe you overall. You owe it to yourself and to your readers to explore all of the nook and corners of who you are. You must examine what is inside you, draw it and infuse it into your role. Many of us are so busy with the “Business of Writing” that we hardly have time for looking around to see what is what?
So, how does one go about searching his/her inner self to find this passion? It takes time and work. You will come across new things about yourself that will open up new doors of possibility and discovery for your work and life.
