A friend of mine calls himself a motor-mouth. I recently realized I have become the equivalent, except it is with with my fingers on the keyboard, rather than the mode of oral delivery, particularly in emails.
The problem is I don't know what to call myself...a prolific polysylableist, A digital derelict? A digital dramatist? An effusive editorialist? Over-edifier? Excessive epistileist? I can't find just the right parallel phrase to "motormouth."
Any suggestions would be appreciated!!
Another niggling question is, "What do writers fear?" If you are a writer and you know it, what is there to be afraid of? You love words and ideas and imaginative communication. You have a computer in front of you and lots of ideas...but you sit down and are met with a blank wall, akin to stage fright.
So, what is there then to fear? Ridicule? Fear of getting a great start, then suddenly nothing more will come? Fear of readers? Fear you have wasted your time? The wrath of your writing coach? (Naa...I can handle that... I welcome it even!) That maybe you are just no good? None of the above?All of the above? Don't know....
The answer is probably right in front of me... stop ruminating and just do it!
Well, who needs to pay for Lumosity to stimulate the brain? I can ask myself my own questions!
Still, any input would be appreciated.:)
