Great essay, Josh! Very inspiring, especially the last sentence. Turning observations into text is why I started writing. Before I stopped caring about "what to write" and "where to get inspiration" I was struggling to write regularly, but once I started putting my experience and thoughts into the work, things got much better.
Hi John. Thanks for your response. And I definitely agree. Just as alcohol is often deemed to be a 'social lubricant', I find that life experiences serve as a literary lubricant towards realising ideas onto paper.
