What happens when sometimes you feel like you should be a writer

[LuvLoogie]

3. It's also good to just write and get used to articulating your thoughts

They don't necessarily need to be written as if you had a spectator or listener. A conversation could be had with yourself. Or an alter ego can take over and rant. A combination of handwriting, keyboarding, voice and video recording, picture taking. Take a thousand words to describe what happened in a few seconds. Describe 9/11 in one sentence. Writing poetry could help.

I suppose it's a combination of having the energy/work ethic and being driven/inspired.

Create a topical blog and update it weekly.

All these things can help evolve and grow your voice and awareness.

Edit to add: At some point you can look at the structure of storytelling and all it's components. Taking a creative writing course or workshop might help you determine if you want to be in it for the long haul. And commentary on real stuff as yourself can be a way to go, too.
