I imagine this is how it feels before a bungee jump, or a skydive. Standing at the edge, heavy breathing, heart racing...and then you start to write.
Starting is always the hardest part of anything. Work, exercise, writing. With these and numerous other tasks its simply the action of starting that seems to require the most will power. I have wanted to start writing for a long time, and now I have. Easy street from here on out right? Wrong! Now another problem casts a cloud over me. What am I going to write about? Well I guess I would say those topics near and dear to me, Culture, Politics, Philosophy, in short all those things that combined are the essence of our western society.
However I should rephrase my comments when I say these topics are near and dear me. What has driven me to start writing was that many of my favorite things are a double edged sword, that fill me with both love and hate. This is my attempt at a balancing act.
So I guess all that is left is to begin.
