I have been writing here on read.cash for more than a year now, since September 06, 2021, and I have published more than 400 articles already. From just merely writing short essays that would count as an article already during my newbie days, to drafting 4 to 6-minute reading time per article, I can say that I've improved a lot as a writer since I joined this platform.
Getting to write one article, sometimes more than 2 up to 3 articles a day if I have a lot of free time and if my brain cells are cooperating, the other day, I would then experience having a writer's block, where even if I try so hard to think of a topic to write on, no words just comes out.
Writer's block is one of the dilemmas of a writer. And to overcome this problem, one just needs to pause, reflect, and ask the question, "Why am I writing?"
I have experienced this so many times in my blogging journey here on read.cash, and every time, this question would always help me to get back on track.
It has always been a broken record that I am writing to inspire and be inspired, which I have written on the Bio side in my profile page. But after more than a year of writing articles and sharing my stories and ideas on this platform, I realized that it is not just that.
There are many reasons why I continue writing and grinding. And I believe that if I hold on to all of these reasons, I will continue to write even more as the days pass by, for as long as read.cash exists. So, why am I writing?
I am writing to share my stories
After more than a year of being active on this platform, I have been sharing some of my personal stories, and even some of my made up or fictional stories.
Writing has been a way for me to show and introduce myself to all of you who have been reading some of my works on this platform. Some of my stories are heartwarming and inspirational, and sometimes, some of the stories I have written are just from my imagination.
I am writing to ask questions and seek answers
If you have been reading my published works, you might have noticed that most of the title of my articles are in a form of question. These questions are sometimes personal that I ask to myself and I am just so happy that I get to answer them too and share them to others. Some users have also given their own answers to the questions I have asked, and I'm grateful for always leaving a valuable comment.
I am writing to share my thoughts
Sometimes, when I am bored of being alone and I have nothing to do, I just write articles on this platform just to share and release some of the thoughts that are running inside my mind.
Writing the thoughts that worries me and letting other users to read it just gives me the feeling that there are people who are willing to listen to me even if they are just strangers and don't know me personally. Even though it is only virtual, I appreciate that some people would comment and give me valuable advice.
I am writing to share some of my knowledge and ideas
Sometimes, I am writing articles that I know will benefit the users who will get to read my articles. This is my way of sharing some of my knowledge and ideas.
I am also writing about the ideas I have learned from other sources, like Facebook posts and blogs, and I try to share them with a bit of my experiences.
I am writing to share my Poetries and Feelings
One of the things that I love to do when I was still in High School was to write short poems and even spoken-word poetries. Through writing poems, I get to express my feelings and emotions that I couldn't express verbally. I am an introvert who lacks with communication skills, that's why writing helps me to say what I couldn't express.
I am writing to share my travel Goals and adventures
It has always been my dream to actually have my own blogging site where I can freely share some of my travel goals and dream adventures, and this site is my stepping stone to achieving that dream.
I haven't travelled outside the country yet, but when I do get the chance, I would be happy to share some of my travels and adventures on this platform.
For now, I can only write about my travel goals and dream adventures, but I hope that one day, I will be writing my personal stories already.
I still have a lot of reasons why I continue writing and it includes I'm writing to earn more Bitcoin Cash but that's an obvious reason already so no need to state that. I am also writing to record a memory and to document my achievements.
They say that writing is a talent, but it is also an acquired skill that one can improve as he continues to write.
I am still just a frustrated writer, and I will keep writing not just for Bitcoin Cash but to also improve my writing skills.
This article is a source of inspiration to keep writing, thanks for sharing all your thoughts. Have a great day
