Firstly: Im new on here, so I'm still exploring and working on my prof :)Secondly: English is my 4th Language so please have mercy
Now lets get to the Point:
I have a Feeling people just don't write anymore.
And I don't mean Books or Fanfics - I mean just generally writing stuff.
Like:
- nobody has Blogs anymore,
- theres no letters or postcards, no penpals,
- people don't even Tweet anymore (and i don't even fully blame elon),
- NOT EVEN BIRTHDAY CARDS (which I kinda find rude tbh)
and especially: why do people don't do diaries anymore??
I find this most crazy, cause how do you manage your feelings, without exploding, when you don't write shit down. Im gonna be honest here, I myself don't always write my whole day down, but mostly because im lazy as heck. When im going through a sad or difficult phase tho, i have to or I'll die...But in general I love keeping diary, even when im not feeling like shit. It just makes my day feel complete and I can be fully honest without leaving embarrassing things out, that i wouldn't tell my friends.
However: I know that people nowadays just tell their friends everything and I get that - I do it too - mostly.
But I had times where I had no friends I could talk to, or just things I couldn't talk about and thats where you should start writing your thoughts down,
because I know I'm not the only who experiences the feeling, that you can't handle your own life anymore.

Now lets carry on:
So as you probably imagine I'm on here to Blog or just generally share my opinions on stuff.Which brings me to another sub point:
People don't read anymore.
And again, I don't mean Books or Fanfics.I mean generally. I think one of the big reasons Blogging isn't coming back, is cause no one would read them anymore.
We are way to stuck on Videos, that we've got to lazy to read, if it isn't for a huge story.
Except for the Fact that the lack of reading is making us dumber (wdym we can't even read school texts and let Chat sum them up), its genuinely sad that people mostly don't start writing, cause they think no one would read it anyway.
And to be clear: I'm not blaming anyone or bashing people - I'm just as bad myself, I barely read because I'm to lazy and thats why I want to change and hope to motivate others to.
I genuinely enjoy and love writing about whatever and hope that, if read this far, you might continue keeping up with my Block. Because I sadly know if there is no one to read I will probably give this shit up soon, cause I can't commit.
So Lastly, Some tipps if you want to write more, but don't know what or where to start:
- Roleplaying:Ik it sounds hella weird, but if you are an creative soul (like me) its so fun.
You create your own characters and play them by writing with other people.
There are a lot of Servers on Discords in all kinds off setups: Fantasy, Slice of Live, Fandoms,...
- Diaries (like mentioned)
I don't even think I have to say more about this, but a note:
If you don't like writing by hand, or don't want your parents to find, or whatever - do it digitally. Hide it in an Folder on your computer or use a Website (i used purple diaries for a while).
- Blogging:
Kinda obvious im not gonna say much, just that u can genuinely write about everything anywhere. (Reddit, here, not very cool but X too,...)
- Letters to friends or get a Penpal:
There are tons of websites to find penpals and I'ts also fun to just write your friends some Letters about anything. Also Emails work.
- Storys or genuine Books
Don't be scared to start writing. In all of these its the most achievable, cause ao3 is blowing off and everyone is hungry for good Storys.
Let your creative ideas guide you and remember: you can't be worse than J.K Rowling and that women is a Millionaire.
Thats it for today. I hope I've helped at least 1 Person, because this really motivated me to write more.
Ara, Ara Sayonara Fuckers.
