What do you think? Do you use something besides a pen to compose your writing?"

It's been quite a while since I last attempted a blog. I was working full time on a very temporary job that lasted a month. So I left the house at 5:30AM, caught the bus to work, and made it home at 5:30PM. Not much time to blog or write anything. I am working toward a bachelors degree at Marshall University. Although the job I was doing had nothing to do with my education, it was an internship position to acquire the hours of on-the-job training needed to take my certification tests. I want to certify as a peer recovery coach/peer support specialist. The job I had gave 150 of my needed hours.

This is an interesting prompt. I believe we all have different writing styles. I took a class on creative writing and it was one of the hardest classes I ever took because the instructor had a different approach than I typically use. To follow the instructor's approach I had to make an outline and then write a story precisely following the outline. I had no flexibility that way and although there were a thousand different directions I wanted to take the story I had to follow the outline. The story was okay, but could have been much better. Therefore I prefer to let my pen be my tongue, as Miguel said.
