Of our desire to be called writers? Is it a way to find confirmations that we wouldn't find on our own? To seek complicity in other writers? To justify the fact that we write? Sooner or later, those who love writing end up talking about it. Maybe great authors don't do it, they don't need it. They talk about it in interviews, someone publishes more or less technical essays, but no one has a blog where they can talk about writing. Who should they turn to? The great authors, those published by the big publishing houses, need to strengthen their presence on the market, not to find emerging writers looking for advice on how to make it big. Great authors want readers. And to do this they don't write about writing, but use it to write books.
So, what do we who write about Special Data writing want? Who are we addressing? And, above all, what are we talking about when we talk about writing? The writer's irrepressible desire to talk about writing If we didn't talk about writing, what would we talk about? We don't have books to advertise and, if we have, it's only one or in any case there are few to make up the numbers, to justify the fact that we don't talk about writing but only about our successes, the events we participate in, the films based on our books. But all this is just a daydream, it is something that perhaps only someone will get. And the others will continue to talk about writing, the problems encountered, the reflections on narrative techniques, the continuous revisions, the publisher's refusals and the ebooks that don't take off on Amazon.
Today's emerging writer must talk about writing, he feels it as an obligatory step, as an integral part of his blog. Of his being a writer, too. His audience, our audience, is made up of other emerging writers, we are all here talking and reading about writing, rather than being locked up at home reading books and writing stories. Maybe we never think about it, but how much time do we waste writing and reading about writing, time that we could spend differently, reading useful books and writing the novel that will establish us as writers? And what do we actually talk about in our endless articles on writing? Let's talk about ourselves, above
