In this edition of Write Enjoy Repeat, Ruth talks about how writing was a significant part of growing up for her.

Ruth enjoys the physicality of writing and enjoys writing with a pen in the first instance. She finds it a great tool to use as a means of self-expression in a very crowded world. It also gives her a sense of self and of satisfaction.

Ruth recommends writing because you don’t need any special equipment and it’s not hard to do. You can carry a notebook around and observe what’s going on around you. 

 

Ruth really enjoys Dickens - her favourite being A Tale of Two Cities. She also likes contemporary crime fiction and thrillers.

‘Writing is an embodied experience’ is the prompt from this episode if you fancy trying a piece of writing. Just write those words and keep writing, see what comes.

Do get in touch if we've inspired you to pick up a pen either again, or for the first time. For more about my work to help people to discover, look after and  express themselves through writing, go to cpsdayoff.com.
