Writing makes you more human.

Writing doesn't come easily to me. It gets more and more difficult.

Writing helps me process things that are happening to me.

Writing is a very calming thing for me.

Writing is a way of processing our lives. And it can be a way of healing.

Writing does change you, and of course it feels good to do things, so you could say writing is de facto therapeutic. But really, one writes to write.

Writing is very cathartic for me. As a teacher, I hear many students say that writing can be painful and exhausting. It can be, but ultimately I believe that if you push through, the process is healing and exhilarating.

For me, writing is a kind of coping mechanism.
