I have people ask about writing and the number one question is generally how do you know what to write about. If you understand this sentence – ”The boiler barrel is attached to the smokebox tube-plate by means of a continuous weldless angle iron ring,” then you should be writing about the construction of steam locomotives. We are all experts in something. It can be something like the experience of falling in love. What‘s that you say? It is not special?! When you fell in love, what did you notice first about the other person? Was it their laugh? Was it the little crinkle around their eyes when they smiled? For each of us, it was different. Celebrate what you know by sharing it in writing. It can range in form from a memoir to a poem to a novel. To write, just start filling pages or screens with words.
