Writing, when not for classes, is a treat/sweet. I write because I like to write, but like a treat, I don't necessarily want to share it with others all the time. This is for personal writing, writing for classes and assignments are different than writing in my free time. My writing is personal and I will share it with others when I feel like it's good enough to show others. Usually my ideas come at the most awkward of times, so it usually takes a day or two for even just a stanza to sound good; by that time I might share a line with a friend (the same friend every time, because I know how painfully honest she is), but I would still not share the whole thing with her. Everybody knows that I like writing, but they are so confused as to why I don't share it ("WHAT'S THE POINT" everyone says), and the reason why I write is for me... I don't write for others and I honestly don't see the point of just writing for me. I think i may use writing like this to just improve skills for when I absolutely have to turn in writing for classes, sort of like homework or just review. Practice makes things go by easier, and I know that because I write often, writing for classes is a lot easier for me than most people. I use writing as a hobby and as separate review for class, but mainly for pleasure and to be able to organise ideas.
