When I couldn't get enough writing at those, I started a blog where I've since posted almost 300 posts that average between 500 and 1,200 words. And those are articles, poetic prose, and other types of writing.

I sometimes have hypergraphia from hypomania and mania. Sometimes it's just a release. I call it the "dance and flight of my fingers on my keyboard".

I wrote a bit about hypergraphia and my love of talking and writing in my blog post Writing and/or Talking A Lot! Hypergraphia or Pressured Speech? – Bird Flight
Yeah, and I tend to delete a lot from an even longer post before I submit my posts. That deleted stuff never gets seen. That would give me posts close to an essay, depending.
