writing
First blog, about writing....that's really broad. I love to read as well as write, but it's only really great writings that we the people want to read. In order to find this in a writing we I look for captivation and inspiration.. If you want to captivate you must think about what makes a really great writing! Is it a hook, a pull, or a cleverness throughout? Or does it really depend on the reader themselves? I, myself, feel that the components to a great writing depends on what captivates you, as the writer. Words that are not regularly used seem to captivate readers. It pulls them in with interest. What does this word mean, or wow, I wouldn't have thought to use it in this context. When something gets you to start thinking that starts the captivation, thus produces a really good writing. Now for that great writing you must need a little more than captivation, you'll need to inspire. Inspiration comes from within and when something is so powerful that it not only captivates but inspires, you know that something is great. There are many forms of inspiration, but most inspiration from writing come sin the form of making you want to do something, explore the unknown or just push yourself to an extreme level. When you write something that inspires, theres a good chance it will also inspire the reader as well. Many times I've read a good book and the dedications say something about the book you're about to read has inspired the author and they hope it will inspire the reader as well, and many times it in fact does. They are argumentatively more than just two components to a great writing, however, these are my favorite two.
