writing is not hard
Writing is not hard.
Putting words on pages, one after another, is not hard.
They’re just words; words made of letters. the same 26 letters over and over again.
Letters make words; hundreds of thousands of words.
Words make sentences; millions or more possible sentences: subject-verb, subject-verb-object, etc.
Sentences make paragraphs; billions of paragraphs, maybe an infinite number.
Paragraphs make stories; stories about morning coffee, a favorite unicorn, the 1997 World Series, birth, unemployment, a diamond heist, space colonization.
A million stories per person, per day.
Writing is not hard.
