Writing is a very important part of human existence. Some say writing is a key factor in what separates us from the "animals". It is unfortunate than that many writers do not care about quality.
Writing should be done everyday. Many knowitalls state that it should be done even if it's 10 minutes or one page of "I don't want to write today" over and over. Yet those GIGO writes (garbage in garbage out) seem to comprise more and more of the worlds writing. I enjoy blogs, FB, and social networking, but I have noted of late - even in myself - a distinct lack of substance.
A dear friend has written a great YA novel and is on the cusp of having it published. I've read bits and pieces and even helped edit it a bit. It's full of substance. She buckled down and gave up a lot of other things to get this done. It's a great life lesson. Get ride of the GIGO in your life and you will find the gem of creation in you.
