I wish I could keep it in, because I feel embarrassed. With books and articles, I could even remain anonymous, if I like.
And the point is, I don't care if I get paid, or even if I have an audience. I'd just write, because that's what I enjoy doing.
And perhaps the audience part is part of it. Sometimes, in social situations, it's like I'm forcing people to listen (because they're stuck in the classroom, or party or whatnot w/ me) and I don't want to force anyone to do anything.
Writing would be better because I'd be anonymous (so impervious to reactions), I would be free to explore any topic I like, for as long as I like, and I wouldn't be forcing anyone to pay attention to me.
