#writ

I liked the challenge of writing in a very concise structure in which both meaning and form are important. ↗

I've always written, all my life, and when I was very young I developed an interest in poetry. ↗

When it comes time to write the book itself I'll shut the lights out, picture the scene I'm about to write then close my eyes and go at it. Yes, I can touch type. ↗

I can't control what people think. I'm not trying to manipulate people's thoughts or sentiments. I write all the time. You have to experience life, make observations, and ask questions. It's machine-like how things are run now in hip-hop, and my ambitions are different. ↗

Writing, overall, has never been what I'd call fun. It's fulfilling. It doesn't come real easy for me. ↗

What I take from writers I like is their economy - the ability to use language to very effective ends. The ability to have somebody read something and see it, or for somebody to paint an entire landscape of visual imagery with just sheets of words - that's magical. ↗
