To declutter is a good thing. Now then I have clutter in my Mac. Mac got a boo boo & went off to the Hospital. When he returned what was lost was only a couple months worth of pictures and freewrites. This time I had my external hard drive. Well, that's hugely better than losing a whole year's worth of photos like last time.
That's an interesting place, the Apple store. There are as many geniuses as customers. I ignored all the cool merchandise and went straight to the back. My genius wasn't one and I wouldn't have hung one of those tags around his neck just yet. But he tried and I appreciate their high customer service standards.
So, the "free write" clutter in my computer.
There is a vague notion that someday I will glean something worth publishing, maybe someone will be encouraged by it.
But if the writer is bogged down and isolated, it isn't going to happen.
All those files become heavy and worrisome in the mind. I don't want to go back there and read all that stuff. It's overwhelming.
Discouragement grows.
In the past writing has made you clarify things for yourself, and some of your writing people have enjoyed and been blessed by or at least your words were curious to a friend who enjoys poking around in another person's thoughts.
But freewrite stagnating in the laptop? Hmmm, not good.
So, try this instead: free write directly into your blog for one month. Yes, you will edit it, making it no longer FREE. If you want people to read your words, try it.
