I often like to just start typing, when I don’t really have anything on my mind to write about, so today’s title and prompt is “Random thoughts on Tuesday” for lack of anything better to say. I haven’t found a good word to describe this type of writing yet. Free writing doesn’t really fit because that’s not what I’m doing, but it is close. Automatic writing is much closer to what I’m doing, but I’m still conscious of the words that I’m typing on the page, so that’s not it. Or at least I still think that I’m conscious of what I’m saying anyway. The thought that I’m ramble writing is more to my liking, and I think that’s what I’m doing. This blah, blah, blah going on and on without really saying anything; sounds exactly what I’m doing to me.
Quite frankly, I’m still adjusting to writing here in my new WordPress site, after Windows Live Spaces closed down. And I’ve rambled on and on, with my writing there about nothing…And thought nothing of it, but here, I feel like I need to at least say something. But then again, this whole thing about writing every day is just to get some writing practice. This reminds me of my blog’s theme of Writing just to Write! and this quote: “I need to stop having such high expectations for my writing.” Nothing to worry about here with today’s writing. But it is about Expressing Myself with words, something that I want to learn how to do.
Well I guess that is enough of my random thoughts for today…There’s still a feeling of accomplishment even after I’ve written a bunch of nothing on the page. It is about keeping the commitment that I’ve made to myself, to at least try and write something each day, even if it is something like this.
Thanks for Listening,
Jeff
