Sky: The Space to Write

Where do I write? In a quiet place. A place where I can hear my thoughts, the stirrings of my heart, my soul. I write whenever it hits. I must stop, record, write. If I don’t do so immediately…in a flash, it’s gone. So I have learnt to capture the words as they come. Anywhere, anyhow, anytime.

The equipment I use for writing is anything (smile). When those inspiring writing moments come, I grab the cell phone and write in notes. Sometimes, I write on paper if I can grab one quickly. So I keep note pads all over. In my car, on my nightstand, the traditional desk, dining table, anywhere. I must capture those inspiring writing moments. Then when I am ready to publish my posts, I use my laptop. Sometimes I start in drafts in the WordPress App. But I usually prefer to post on my laptop since it offers the opportunity to edit, tag etc., which I find much easier. Yes, I know this can be done in the App but going the laptop route is my preference before publishing.

To write, all I need in a physical space is simply peace, quiet, and absolute serenity. That’s all. It could be in an airplane in the sky, but for some reason it works. I sleep. I awake my mind is fresh, anew, and I write. Know that serenity can even be found in a crowded space. A train, a plane, a park, an event that I’m allowed to people watch. To see and experience nature amidst the hustle and bustle of people everywhere. The only commonality is that no one can be speaking to me directly (or I won’t hear them or my thoughts (smile). Sounds poetic? Maybe it is. Writing is music to me.

So, Write on writers.
