This blog is my placard held high scrawled in red ink, ‘the right to write’. If words give us power, when do we start to lose that power?

 Toddlers grab at everything, then they grab at words. Filled with passion and purpose, they don’t worry about mixed metaphors, punctuation or split infinitives, they don’t beat around the bush, they trust in the power of words. As adults we write too carefully, try to sound smart, too censored, on-trend. 

Writing makes you a writer not how many books you’ve sold or how many plaudits received.
