I have always felt the need to express myself. Mostly This need is both manifested and satisfied through my music. For this reason, I have never felt an 'artist connection' with writting and have never found it more useful than fulfilling academic demands and notating some thoughts I needed to remember. There has only been one time when I felt a need to write, and this was simply to calm my mind in a stressful time.
On the contrary though, I have always enjoyed writting, if nothing more than a hobby-esqu e love. It has allowed me to think clearly and taught me to organize my thoughts and ideas efficiently. It has also has been a good way to grow intellectually and keep my mind sharp.
