To Everyone with a Song in their Heart

For a creative writer possession of the "truth" is less important than emotional sincerity. George Orwell

Writing is my outlet. I lack structure, method, hell I might be an awful writer to boot. One thing I pride myself in is my sincerity and that I love what I write about.

I have probably over 200 different poems, a plethora of short stories, and at least 20 idea's for novels, and my newest idea for a musical. I don't credit myself to be the next William Blake or Andrew Lloyd Weber or anything, but I take pride in the sense that what I write makes me happy. I used to hate writing after I would write something because I was my biggest critic. I hated my free form, I believed that structure and content was the most important thing.

Then one day I realized I shouldn't write to someones standards, I realized this when I had an inspiration. Something to write about that makes me feel in a way that I have to put it into words. Lyrics, verse and prose are running through my veins. I'm not saying you have to write, I'm saying that find something that inspires you and find an outlet of emotion to power your message through.

A day is an endless canvas, one can leave it blank or color it with the life's of others. Adam Sanno
