I live to write. And write to live.

The greatest invention of all time. The written word. So easy to write. But once upon a time, people went through an entire life without a single written word.  Hard for me to imagine such a life. Of course, it was still possible to speak to each other. Before the written word.  Initially, writing was very difficult. A painstaking labor. On a cave wall. Messages that have lasted for eons. Now it’s possible to become addicted to writing. To become a writer. My favorite pastime. I live to write. And write to live. –Jim Broede
