The Will To Write
***October 10, 2021*** How long can we stand writing every day? Does writing really matter to us? Undeniably, one of the vital skills one must be good at is writing because it is part of our daily lives. Making a to-do list for a day involves writing. Replying to messages of loved ones involves writing. Commenting on any social media app involves writing. Before going to the supermarket, we usually write the food and stuff we need to buy to avoid picking up the unnecessary ones. Before entering the office, we need to sign our names for attendance for those who don't have biometrics or whatever machines that are used for checking attendance. Moreover, accomplishing any task in the office needs writing. Above all, writing is an important skill that all students must perfect. Making essays, thesis, feasibility studies, research papers, homework, quizzes, exams, etcetera, all involves writing. Sending love letters to your crush? It involves writing too, lol. **W**hen you figuratively stepped foot on this platform, you have accepted the fact that you need to write as it is the main requisite here to be eligible to get some BCH rewards. Whatever interesting content is accepted, it can be personal or nonpersonal, fiction or nonfiction, crypto or non-crypto related articles. All we need to do is to be creative in writing to avoid experiencing foggy brains and writer's block. https://read.cash/@Jane/be-creative-in-writing-e7a72e99 https://read.cash/@Jane/random-questions-for-a-foggy-brain-2db9204e https://read.cash/@Jane/whats-holding-you-back-unblock-your-writers-block-9907db70 **H**owever, not all are interested in leveling up their writing skills as they prefer to slack in their abode, procrastinate, and do nonsensical stuff. Maybe stepping up is not their goal as they are only taking writing for granted. And in writing, we have to set inspirations for us to continue fueling our passion for writing. And speaking of which, who are my inspirations in writing? **Y**OU, my readers, because the most important aspect in writing is to have readers. It would be worth the effort of writing if you have readers and receive beautiful feedback from them. But if there isn't, it's like wasting your money on publishing books that have no readers. Writing and reading are important to improve the ability to think. So writers need readers for them to improve their ability to write. **N**o matter how tough the undertakings are, we have to deal with them if writing is really our passion and we want to improve our skills. Besides, it is an aptitude that is significant not only to students or writers but to us as a person as well.
https://www.shethepeople.tv/news/women-writers-india-face-sexism-writing/amp/ ****O*******ur will to write*** could impact our lives in many ways and could make us a better version of ourselves. There are a lot of benefits of writing that we can't see yet because we are only thinking of the rewards, not the real essence of it. **T**aking challenges in writing is the best way to surpass the hurdles and to realize the importance of it. It's not just about our passion, it's not just about the rewards, it's about the change that it could bring into our lives. **A**ctions speak louder than words, as the adage said. But when our system declines to speak up, writing is our powerful instrument to express the thoughts and emotions we desire to deliver to the world and people who are meant to receive the message. **C**ommunication skills, on the other hand, can be improved through writing as it provides us the path to learn the language in writing that is important in communication, either verbal or nonverbal. We usually establish tone or mood in writing to figuratively portray the message of our content so readers could easily understand our stories. We are using punctuation so we know where to pause or stop which we can apply in our verbal communication. We can't just continue talking, we need to pause and stop when it's already the end of the conversation. **R**efining our style in writing is also helpful to sharpen our imagination. For instance, in making creative writing either fiction or nonfiction, our imaginations go broad and wild at times. Our minds could travel to different eras and times and different worlds even to a fantasy world and could create a magical story. **O**ftentimes, we find it hard to fulfill our wants and all we can do is fantasize like a kid. When we can't afford to visit our dream place, we can make it come true in our stories. When we can't get the real love that we want and our ideal man, we can have them in our fiction stories where we are the main character. When we can't express our anger, fear, disgust, sadness, excitement, regrets, admiration, sympathy, or whatever emotions hiding deep within, we can express them through writing. **S**tories, poems, novels, life stories, essays, etcetera, are some kinds of writings where we can express our thoughts, ideas, emotions, and let our imagination flow through our fingers. We can make everything real and put ourselves into our stories to figuratively experience things or feelings that we never had before. **T**ime flies so slow when we enjoy our writing. We often tend to forget the real world when we include ourselves in our stories or enjoy the topic we are writing about. We become disoriented of the time and even to the stuff that we need to comply with, lol. Not unless the alarm buzz or someone's voice brings us back to the real world. **I**n fact, I am supposed to do my work but here I am, continuing this content I have started this morning. Lucky I am that my boss went out, giving me more time to rest and write this content. **C**oncludingly, I can say that consistency and determination are the keys to improve our writing skills. Accepting the writing challenges, taking the prompts, exploring new genres, are the best ways to level up our skills in writing. And this is a challenge I accepted from @McJulez, Why Not Acrostic? Have you noticed the highlighted letter of each paragraph? If not, then read it back. https://read.cash/@McJulez/why-not-acrostic-6b832dd3 Remember that if others can make their writings improve, you can do it too. Just believe in yourself and keep writing π. Thanks for your time. Shout out to @MegaKyodaiBanrai and @Eylz2021 thanks for the sponsorship payments. Time of writing: 3 pm 10/8/21

I immedkately noticed the highlighted letters and immediately scroll down to see the message first before readkng the whole article. I suddenly missed doing acrostic poetries haha. I agree that consistency and determination are the keys to improve our writing skills.
You should do it too because your writing skill is great
I noticed the highlighted words.. I wanted to write like all the challenge but cannot think of idea anymore hahaha
Haha.. You can relate the challenge to your life's situation. It would be easier
Napansin ko Yung highlighted at Wala ako kaidea idea Kasi nga letter lang haha. Yun pala yon
Haha. Hndi mo ata nbasa challenge ni mcjulez kya hndi mo agad nlaman π
Di ako naka subscribe dun e hahahaha
Kaya siguro all nabusted nung high school Hindi kinilig yung crush ko sa love letter ko haha. You really are a good writer madam!
Haha. Seryoso, gumawa ka? π€£
Writing is the intestine of our soul as what they say your penmanship describes your personality. Hehe is that true ma'am?
I dunno . i have a bad penmanship π€£π€£
As based on my own experiences, it doesn't matter ma'am. Regardless of writing, I still wanna be you because you've been blessed by writing and communication skills where penmanship doesn't matter. :)
Yes ate Jane, I noticed the highlighted letters and I read it all talaga to know what's in it, and there a challenge from a fellow writer here. Kagaling talaga. π And I agree na in writing we can explore a lot of things, learn new things in all. I myself, experienced that too. If I have frustrations and all, I tend to write it down and there I'll feel relieved somehow.
Same. And Im currently writing one about some bad feelings
Even before getting to the end of the article, I already noticed those highlighted letters and I knew it was an acrostic for something but I couldn't guess what. Turns out it's for "Why not acrostic". Truly ate Jane, you're one of the best writers on this platform! π I'm very much wowed by this article; creativity at its peak
I know you will take it π haha.. Not a pressure.. But I know you are good at it too π
I'm still a toddler when it comes to writing π but I will certainly do my best
Writing is a remarkable skill. Things which cannot be told can be put into writing. Once you start writing your writing skill improves, your mind works, concentration works, as you told communication skill also improves. Do keep writing.
Thanks . same to you π
Why not, right? π Another awesome challenge huh! And I agree with what you mentioned, that writing in a way, make us improve in a lot of aspects. That is why we Read is a great medium to enhance one's writing and communication skills
Wanna share your version too? π i love reading your work
I will see sis, kung kayanin :D
I will see sis, kung kayanin :D
Ako na nagtataka sa mga letters na naka-highlight..π Tas yun pala, "Why not acrostic".. Hmm.. Bakit ka po pinagpala sa galing sa pagsusulat? Hehe.. Sana all Ms. Jane.. Tas ako na gusto magsulat talaga, pero, parang ewan, kakapagod din minsan, lalo na kung may naiisip ka ngang topic, di mo naman alam pa'no umpisahan..
Tinatamad din ako minsan kya nonsensical stuff mga sinusulat ko π€£ Inaccept ko lng ang challenge haha. Galing ni mcjules eh
What of someone that has the ability to write and talent for good article but lazy whenever it comes to writing Sometimes I skip what am supposed to write as an article because am lazy at writing
Laziness is really a bad thing there because even if you have a lot of thoughts if your mood isn't cooperating well, you still can't compose sensible content. Mind and finger should work together
True... a lot of members here don't even try to improve their writing skills. And there are still a few who are too lazy to compose articles themselves and resort to article spinning. Then again, that's where you will see who are the real writers or aspiring writers here from those who are here for some quick bucks.
We all have a talent to write, it's just a matter of determination to pursue it.
hahaha was wondering why the first letters are highlighted... yun pala yun lol.. you are welcome sis!
Thanks again
Writing is one thing I became fond of due to my shyness when I was younger, it was difficult to ask a lady out because of the fear of rejection so I just come up with sweet and enticing messages to win a lady's heart before I make my intentions known. With time I discovered that I can do more than that and the urge to write increased for me. Today, I am not doing my best but it brings me joy to know that I have readers for my content. I believe everyone is a writer but we have restricted ourselves to a particular thing thinking it requires extraordinary IQ to come up with contents.
Yup. Just like what I said below, we all can write and have a talent for making good content. Only if we have the determination to pursue it and unleash that potential
Ahuh.. First time heard the word acrostic. I agree with you ate consistensy is the key talaga...
Try mo na π
Parang di ko pa carry.. Ahahaha.. Yung connect the title nga di ko pa din magawa ate..
"Why not acrostic" was the highlighted letters. I encountered that once while reading @McJulez article. This can be a great help for me as a trying hard writer to enhance my skill in writing. I will try to do this next time. If don't mind I will tag your name then because you inspired me to do the challenge too.
Sure.. Any time
Yes, it all matters to me cos I can express my emotions through writings. Not like before, I just keep it to myself but now, I am very thankful of this platform π
Oh so that's what it is. Why not acrostics. So creative po. And I also agree that writing or exploring other genres to write can improve our writing that's why I am planning to write something that I don't think I can write about. In that way, I will be able to challenge myself.
Brilliant way of writing you. I prefer writing on keyboards than writing with a pen on my hand, I don't have good handwriting though and I think keyboard is faster and less stressful
Mas naka focus talaga ako sa naka bold na letters, galing ate super creative. I don't know how long it'll take me para maka create ng idea na ganyan HAHAHA
I love writing, but an article every day is still a struggle to me for some reason. I guess I get busy writing in chats too much π
I experience it recently, just yesterday. The article i planned on writing wasn't fit for today. That realisation scattered my head. I went to bed without drafting any article... thankfully i have a pending prompt to fall back to.
We do write everyday that's given LOL, the moment we woke up we wrote out our password haha. Writer is choice not a talent for we could develop it when we want to, and worst ignore because we don't like.π¬
I can do it too sana if hindi lang ako tamad ba. Kasi ako imbes na mag research sana if how to make my article more cute and understandable or unique - ayon heto ako nanonood ng anime haysttt. Anyways, dami ko ng na missed na challenge. Wala talaga aksi akong maisip.
This is just creative writing at its peak, every time I read your articles there is always something to take home, it's informative, captivating, and entertaining. I think it's important for a writer to explore more ways to express their thoughts especially taking up prompts and challenges like what you have just done.
Ang galing naman neto! Di ko pa natatary ang acrostic. Challenging but interesting hehe. Well done, sis.
You love challenges and you are very good at it. It seems you were born for them. That is why we all love to read you and we love you. Writing must always carry meaning. Something that transmits an emotion, an idea or a positive thought, a teaching. That is the beauty of transmitting hope to others who read you.
I have fallen in love with writing right from secondary school days because I see it as a way to express myself, it has become my way of life cos without it I don't think I can survive especially when I join readcash, I have also learned a lot from beautiful writers on here, and this can't make me stop writing
