Writing (prose and poetry)

Jonathan · January 15, 2005

Hello all,

I want to compile some writings from people that deal with food, addiction to food, obesity, the band, etc. I've done some journalling in the past few years as I've tried to deal wtih my problem on a psychological level that I'm going to clean up and post. In the mean time, I plan on putting them on my website. Eventually, maybe something more permanant. If you're interested in contributing, feel free to send me your materials via PM or email at any time. If you want to be anonymous, just indicate so, and I'll never reveal your identity. If you want to be credited, let me know that as well.

I think writing, especially poetry, or even poetic "prose", is extremely effective at relaying an emotional state of mind (or being) that normal conversation simply cannot. I'm not sure what my "goal" is here, but I just feel that this might be a way to reach both those who feel they're alone in their struggle, and those who just don't get it at all.
