When I sit down to type out an entry, say, like this one, I simply sit and I type.  The words flow fairly easily, with few hesitations or concerns.  I think, I type.  Pretty simple, really.  People I used to write letters to told that my writing reads much the way I talk (to me this means "full of grandeous self-importance, occasional humor and overly long complex sentences that make me really glad I never learned how to diagram a sentence because I might feel bad about how overly long and awkward they really were.") which I regarded as a compliment.

So then why is "real" writing so dangedably difficult?

I'll spare you the whining, or click on through to the other side if you'd like... )
