Writing vs. Publication. Round One. Fight!
A classic question about writing and publishing asked by ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
arcaedia had me thinking.
The question, of course, is the age old: if you knew for certain that you'd never get a publishing contract ever, would you continue to write?
For me, the answer is definitely yes. Writing is part of my inner self, one that I've had since I learned to write and one that I wouldn't be able to give up.
However, I would make significant changes to things I do. I think, in a way, knowing I'd never get published would free me.
( My answer to the question. Cut in case you don't feel like reading my oh-so-interesting navel gazing and what not. )
