I came to a startling conclusion today when I read through my past blogs - my writing has turned to crap......well, maybe that was a bit exxagerrated. But nevertheless, my writing has gone down recently. Going through my old myspace blogs and personal journals, I saw a direct correlation between my involvement with music and the whole band situation and the downfall of my freestyle work and random thoughts on life. Granted, most of that wasn't exactly world changing essays and nobel worthy liteature, but I used to write almost constantly about anything that happened to pop into my head, and in truth, I have been writing in some form long before I ever picked up a guitar. It seems that with all of the time I have put recently into lyrics, composition, and the like, I've abandoned the whole freestlye form that brings about the lyrics in the first place. It's frusterating to say the least. I think in the very near future I am going to try and involve myself with some sort of online writing project to help me regain what I have lost. Maybe freelance articles, or reviews, or just diligent and articulate thoughts on life in my own blogs. All things considered, my purpose for music is to inspire, enlight, and educate. And doing that in non-musical forms only helps me to eventually achieve my goal. Interesting Smithers......veeeeery interesting.
