Commando: Dear Friends,
Writing is unarguably a passionate art form. Through the centuries, it has provided us with an outlet for exploring our innermost thoughts and emotions. Regardless of the style or subject chosen, we are able to express our intimate feelings using this ancient tradition. It allows us to communicate issues that we might not be able to otherwise openly discuss. It as well affords us the opportunity to reevaluate ourselves, our relationship with others, our station in life and the world around us. Writing may also be therapeutic, allowing us to work through issues in our lives to find solutions, clarify, comfort, and peace of mind. It is by virtue of this versatility that the art of writing has remained strong century after century. Sharing my thoughts with you, and having your support along the way is an honor. Best wishes and God Bless.
Respectfully with Admiration,
Bill
    Jannypan (Jan) : This is an exceptional discussion on the art of writing, Commando. It was a honor to read. I agree with your conclusions. Thanks for sharing. Respectfully with Love and Admiration, Laura Jan -
    Tootie: Thank you so much for sharing this. So very true! Many of us find it hard to express ourselves verbally, but we can share our thoughts and feelings through poems and stories. When we read other writings, we can find our own feelings in them and realize we all have similar insecurities, confusions, joys, loves, etc. Yes, so very comforting. Through writing, we are able to let our inner voice, which is the real us, come out. We can create stories from not only our experiences, but from our imaginations, expanding our own limited boundaries. What a feeling that is when it pours out onto the page! It is such a pleasure co-authoring with you, Bill. I know that as we finish each chapter in Love Long Distance, as well as our other novels, I feel ecstatic that we, together, created these stories through our experiences and our imaginations, Through writing, we are creators! Wow! Let's keep on writing! Best wishes and God Bless. Respectfully with Admiration and Truckloads of Love, Cathy -
    Diana L Crawford: I thank God for the ability to express my thoughts and imagination through words! It is all that you speak of above! And it allows one to leave a part of themselves behind for loved ones to hold on to. xoxo -
    Commando: A "SALUTE" to Jan, Cathy, and Diana!
    Thanks for your "AWESOME" thoughts. Best wishes and God Bless.
