I’ve been thinking about the idea of personal essays… sometimes the form seems most approachable for me. A little blurring between the lines of auto-biographical, informative and creative writing might be the reason for that.
Years ago (10, maybe), I made a list of the personal essays I was going to write and then compile into a collection. I never wrote them. It’d be interesting to see how different the list might be today.
Consensus: I need to make a greater effort to write creatively.
