Why Do We Write?

June 6, 2013
Why do we write the things that we do? We feel as though our art gives us an emotional catharsis... A purge from our anger. Why do we write? It makes us feel better. It makes us feel in a way that nothing else can. Why do we write? As we said, our art is beauty. Poetry is beautiful. Why do we write? We do what we do... Because it is simply... Fun.
