Where Can I Watch Shelly Martinez

The craft of writing


I write because I can not do a normal job like everyone else.
I write because I like my books are written, and I can read them.
I write because I have it with you all, against the world.
I write because I like to sit in a room all day.
I write because I can not stand the reality if not processed.
I write because the world knows what kind of life I, the other, we all have lived and continue to live in Istanbul, Turkey.
I write because I love the smell of paper and ink.
I write because I think more than anything in literature, art of the novel.
I write out of habit or passion.
I write because I'm afraid of being forgotten.
I write because I like the fame and the interest arising therefrom. I write to be alone.
I write in hopes of understanding why I have it with you all so much, with the world.
I write because I like to read.
write, telling me that we must finish this novel, this page, which I began.
write, telling me, that's what everyone expects from me.
write because as a child I believe in the immortality of libraries and the position you hold my books.
I write because life, the world, everything is incredibly beautiful and uplifting.
I write because it's nice to put into words all this beauty and richness of life.
I write not to tell a story but to build it.
write to escape the feeling of not being able to reach a place to which we aspire, as in dreams.
I write because I can not be happy whatever he does.
I write to be happy.
