Andy's Old School Blog: Some thoughts on "Why write?"

Ken Smith wrote a stream-of-consciousness post on why writers write, or why people should write. I have collected a few resources, and wanted to share them today.#

From the first two episodes of my podcast Thinking About Tools For Thought, I discussed writing as a primary tool for thought.#

Anna Havron at Analog Office recently wrote about how pen and paper (simple tools) can be used to create complex things (all artifacts of writing)#

Sascha at Zettlekasten.de had an excellent breakdown of how value is added to a zettlekasten system (writing/knowledge system)#

Swyx proposes a "three strikes rule" for blogging (three stumbles across something means you have to write it down/share)#

Josh Bernoff shares his top three reasons why writers should blog (practice, testing ideas, building an audience)#

So - there you go - get started! I'm going to try to keep up this writing streak....#
