Welcome to Twenty Something Writers
Welcome!
This blog is a place for twenty something writers to talk about writing. As a group, we are dedicated to sharing ideas and encouraging each other to do the hardest thing of all: sit down and write. It doesn’t matter the level you write at or how much formal training you have, we want to hear about your experiences writing. We believe that simply talking about writing can help us stay motivated to finish that poem, that novel, or even that paper for class.
Twenty something writers is an interactive blog dependent on your participation. Your ideas will help to shape this blog and determine its future. We want to hear your ideas for blog posts, discussion questions, writing prompts, or anything else you think the group might be interested in. Tell us about your writing process, let us know what inspires you, lead a group discussion on the importance of grammar, or simply read and comment.
We are a community of writers working to inspire creativity and encourage each other to keep on writing. Join us!
The Prompt
We’d like to get the ball rolling by hearing your responses to the prompt: Tell us about your writing history. Have you always enjoyed writing? Did you hate grammar lessons in school? Who have been your greatest influences? What kind of writing do you enjoy most? Take any creative spin you want. Post your response on your blog and leave the link in the comments below. Check out the responses of others as well.
Contribute
We need help getting the ball rolling, so please don’t hesitate to contribute. See the Contribute page for more details! Like, we need content for this week, so if you have something in mind, let us know. Even if you might want to reprint a blog you’ve already posted, feel free to submit that.
