Every avid writer knows that we all write for our own reasons. Whether it’s just for fun, a hobby, or a way to clear our minds, creative writing is all about free expression and has a certain therapeutic quality. Why-I-Write is a Tumblr blog that encompasses all of these things, and more.
The best part is that most of the posts are submissions from users. It gives you a forum to express your personal ideas, as well as look at those of people with a similar interest. And,– if you’re like me, and writing is a large part of your daily life — that community vibe is pretty awesome.
