Write from What You Know? A Different Approach

When we write from the imagination we are writing what we “know” but from such a deep level of knowing that we don’t know that we know it until it is revealed in our writing. This is often the truer aspect of self, the part that we do not readily show to the world, and sometimes do not show even to our self – at least not consciously. This is what makes the journey such risky business. This is also the great joy of writing; when we are true to the process, we discover worlds within we did not know existed.
