"Have you noticed how often writers write about writing? I
don’t just mean blog posts or diaries and autobiographies, but also creative
writing: stories, poetry and novels that deal with or touch upon the craft of
writing. Because we do, you know, spend a lot of time writing about writing
and, yes, the fact that I’m a writer writing about writers writing about
writing is not lost on me.
So why do we do it – write about writing, that is?"
If you are interested in J.S.Watts' answers to this question, you might want to check out today's guest post on The Writers Vineyard blog. In it she talks about why writers write and, especially, why writers just love to write about writing. That's a whole load of writing!
J.S. would like to thank The Writers Vineyard for generously hosting her post "Writers Writing About Writing".
