Writing

I think of writing the same way I think of practicing for a sport. You can't just show up to the field on game day and expect to be ready to play. You have to put in hours and hours and hours of work in practice, in spaces most people will never see, in order to prepare you to perform well in the game.

There are lots of parts of the writing process I enjoy. I like when you come up with exactly the right word. I like when I write something that makes me laugh out loud - especially when it's on purpose. 

There are a lot of parts of writing that are challenging, too, though. Like horseback writing. I'm no good at that.
