45. "well, i get a lot from my time here."
In response to In response to 44


  

          

there are certain people who type in a way that sounds conversational.
maybe i've just got an eye/ear for that.
but i really find this place to be an invaluable tool.
if nothing else, it keeps you writing everyday, and writing in a context where you can't possibly fail or do something wrong.
it's a no-pressure writing exercise.
it keeps your muscles fresh if you use it to keep your muscles fresh.

i hear what you're saying about dialogue, but i'm telling you: it works for me.
