PROMPT: Acknowledge that writing is hard. Hard Writing: Another Direction

I think to explain why writing is hard, you first have to decide what writing is to you. Someone might feel it's coming up with a subject, tying elements together, overthinking, underthinking- you know, stuff. To me, that part of it is story telling. So, I don't think of it as writing so much. Or maybe I do, but I don't for the distinct purpose of addressing this prompt.

For me though, writing is hard because of the structure of sentences. (And spelling, but I'm concentrating on sentences.)

I want to write like I talk. I want to put commas, where I pause in thought while speaking. Not where they belong to show a break in direction, or whatever comma's are literally used for. I should look that up.

When I say I "want", what I really mean is, it feels natural to me. I don't think twice about it because it just fits. Why shouldn't we write just like we talk? Broken sentences. Beginning sentences with and.

That's why writing is hard for me. I can see the proper sentence structure, and it looks broken. But break it, and it looks just fine.

(I realise this goes against the very idea of the prompt. But, for honesty purposes, it is the only way I could answer. It truly is WHY writing is hard for me. As for balance- well, the goal is to get the creativity to meet with the technicality. And at this moment, I have no idea how to bring that forth. So- my balance will come with time. Easy answer? Yeah. But the most accurate.)
