Asking myself questions always leads me to unexpected places. This was a great prompt!

Who am I really writing for (besides me)?

What is my deeper purpose on the page (and beyond their margins)?

Where do I think this growing body of words is taking me over the next 25 years?

How can I be so scared and exhilarated by the stories within me at the same time?

When will I give myself the same love, consideration, and kindness I give so freely to others?

Why does my brain always seek slippery spiraling answers when I want to sleep or shower?

Why is my study room home to so many blank notebooks and so many writing implements?

What if my life were a series of Rubik’s Cubes with no clear solutions?

Is joy a fleeting luxury for me?

Is writing my obsessive self-indulgence?

Why is it so difficult to balance a writing life with a lived one and a shared one?

Is there ever an end to these questions when my restless mind continues to grow “curiouser and curiouser”?
