Write On

I joined an online writing group called Write On. I'm excited about it as I have been taking my writing time more seriously. Although I'm not sure if it is at a professional level the processing I'm getting from doing all these hours of writing has been great. I have quite a bit of free time and if I fill it by journaling, blogging or writing on this new writing group I find myself feeling very productive and relaxed. On of the blogs I'm using is bethquick.blogspot.com She writes prompts for Scripture. Sometimes I like working with Scripture, especially if I can be creative with it. One of the things I'm working with is only being in relationships that I want to be in, not being taken hostage or coerced emotionally in any way. This can simply be not calling someone I don't feel like talking to, or not being emotionally available to people I don't want to mother. I find I was doing a lot of that because I was lonely. With the writing I'm starting to have myself. I feel I am becoming a person and I can dialogue with my new personhood.
