Because I get inspired and I have no other talents... but then again, I'm horrible at writing. (Everytime I say that, everyone gets all defensive and say I'm not... then one of my friends looks at my stories and criticizes away!)
I need to make the voices in my head shut up. And if I'm not writing, I feel like I'm going more and more insane...
Because words are all I have, and no one's willing to listen.
It has something to do with the atmosphere...

Criticism makes you a better writer, well constructive criticism...

It was a messed up smiley. But I fixed it.
Oh okay that makes more sense.
I write so I can let it all out. I think I'd explode if I didn't. There'd be guts everywhere and I don't want my house to look like a slasher film.

Yes, it would be. I don't particularly want to explode because it sounds painful.

I write because my life would be boring without it. Writing allows me to explore other places, fall in love, break up with someone, or solve a crime. Granted, reading does that too, but writing it is so much better. You can control where the story will go and no one can say differently. Sorry for my speech, I think I might have gone a little bit overboard on that one. Oh well!
Because I can. Because everything I'm not and everything I want to be can happen in my writing, so that everything that could happen and everything that doesn't, happens. I can be both who I really am and somebody else depending on what mood I'm in.That may or may not have sounded confusing, so...yeah. Numerous reasons, is all. Oh, and I have something to say but I prefer writing it in the form of a novel/poem/whatever to telling people directly.
Because I find comfort in words. Paper is my best friend, because words are all I have and no one's willing to listen. And because to me, words being on paper makes them real.
I love to write because it helps/boosts my imagination and it makes me more creative. It also adds depth to my personality.
I love to write because I can create an alternate universe to leave to when this one is too much to bear. Writing allows me to travel all the journey's I may never have the opportunity to later on, physically, mentally, emotionally or, well, in reality.
I love to write also because that's where all my feelings go. Like all my romantic feelings go into my writing, all my anger and rage goes in there too, and etc. My writing is basically me.
I love to write because I can create worlds and stories that could never truly happen. I can be the people that I want to be and I can live the life that I want to live.
I could not get through life without writing. I am constantly seeing the words in my head that describe exactly what is happening at my life at that moment. I've been doing it for so long that I don't think I could ever possibly stop.
