the more i write the more i need to write

I'm finding lately, the more I've been writing, the more things I've found to write about.  

other theories on why words stay away

In my last post I mentioned that there were also other theories that have been put forth as to why I'm not writing as I used to when I was younger.  

why i stopped writing

When my dad died, I was 22.  Ruthlessly, I cut the words out of my life.  I stopped writing.  Period.  Words were my way to express emotion and I decided I didn't want to feel anymore, so even though the words came, I forced them back.

attempts at bringing the words back

Over the past eight months I've been writing a lot, but nothing like I used to, even though I've been trying.
