Lately I’ve been on a writing kick. Of course I write for classes all the time, I am a public relations student after all. But I’ve been getting back into the habit of writing for my own benefit. Reading through my old journals have been a big source of inspiration, even though my personal journals contain mostly jumbled thoughts and ramblings. It feels good to open my journal to fresh pages waiting for my ideas.

This blog is the same way. For some reason the blank blog post is scarier than a blank journal… but it still has the same effect as writing in a journal. I’ve started paying more attention to how other writers express themselves as well. Especially journalists in various mediums- newspapers, magazines, online news sources, etc. The more I read, the more I pay attention to the little details.
I have this urge to devour as much information as possible and to read everything. But that’s a good thing, it’ll keep me busy for a while.
