Writing
isn't rocket science. But maybe it does as much for the brain. New
studies are finding this true. We get healthier the more we write.
Not many writers realize this.
In my online classes, I ask a basic question: Why do you write? What's your writing doing for you, for your life, for your service to the world?
Book writers spend hours, days, years on their books. Why? It must be more than the fun of roaming around in our own heads. Right? Because it's hard work to write a book.
But do you consider that writing every day might give you good health--and stories, the basic ingredient of writing, are the reason? It's like the old saying, An apple a day . . .
How about, A page a day . . . ?
