Writing Aspirations/Lamentations

I’ve blogged off and on for several years. Mostly off because I find it hard to come up with ideas of what to blog about. I like to write but I’m just not that creative. I certainly want to write more often than I do but find it hard to do so.

This morning I was referred to a blog post by Fred Wilson about writing. Wilson’s take is different from mine. He laments how he was never properly taught how to write. I don’t think I was properly taught how to write either but it’s always come easy for me when I’ve had the right idea.

Despite the difference I now find Wilson to be a kindred spirit and a bit of an inspiration. He started blogging daily at the age of 42. I’m not that far away from that age and aspire to write much more often than I currently do. Not necessarily daily but perhaps several times a week. If Wilson can conquer his writing skills then certainly I can conquer my imagination skills (or lack thereof). It’s certainly something I plan to work on.
