Why Do We Write
Writing is an indispensable part of human civilization, a primary pillar upon which societies are built and cultures thrive. It’s not just a means of communication; it is an archive of collective human Wisdom and emotions that spans across generations. Writing is universally acknowledged as the most effective tool for preserving and conveying thoughts. It transcends the barriers of time and space, allowing a writer in one part of the world to speak directly to a reader in another, years or even centuries later. The Baby Boomers generation is filled with some of the best writers and our experts in this area of the site talk about why writing is so important to us and how it affects the generations following us like Millennials and Generation Z.
Creatively, writing is an art form that provides a canvas for the imagination. It encompasses a vast range of genres, each offering a unique way of exploring human experiences and emotions—be it through poetry that taps into rhythmic beauty, fiction that opens imaginary realms, or non-fiction that delves into real-world issues. Writing also serves as a powerful therapeutic tool, helping individuals to articulate thoughts and feelings that might be difficult to express orally. As a tool, a craft, and an art, writing remains at the heart of personal, professional, and cultural identities.

Stained glass artist Margaret Malishchak proves new chapters don’t have to mean leaving other passions behind for good. After loving creating stained glass as a young adult, Margaret then shifted her focus to her growing family and other aspects of life, her art supplies packed away in her Madison, NJ basement. But this was a ‘see you later’ not a ‘goodbye’-- a great reminder to all of us that we can step away from one passion to focus on another, and it does not have to mean we are leaving it forever. Fast forward more than 25 years, Margaret’s daughter asked about the boxes in th…

Author BioBrian Latimer is a college professor and part-time satirist that corrupts young minds to think critically and question authority. He likes to poke fun at the absurdity of academia because it's funny that people who hold multiple fancy pieces of paper still can't do simple things they should have learned in elementary school. Hence, he is in the middle of writing a book series about how bizarre people with PhDs really are. When not in front of the classroom, Brian conducts research, plays old video games, and flings himself down flights of stairs for fun.Connect with Brian LatimerAmaz…
