Granted, I don't post much of my work here (I'm far too self-conscious about my writing,) but this is an easy question for me.
I write because I feel awkward not writing. It's the only habit I have that forces me out of bed at 3 AM to write something out until dawn, because I can't get this singular phrase or idea that explodes in my mind at such a late hour out of my head quite fast enough. Yet, I love every minute of it. It's a medium that allows me to be angry, sad, funny, everything in between, and not even necessarily myself while I'm doing it.
It is my ultimate catharsis.

If you could really get to know someone and know that they weren't lying to you, then you would know the world was real. Because you could agree on things, you could compare notes. That must be why people get married or make Art. So they'll be able to really know something and not go insane.
