Finding Forester Reflection 


Forrester: No thinking-that comes later. You must write your first draft with your heart. You rewrite with your head. The first key to writing is...to write, not to think! 


From the movie, Finding Forrester, I learned that writing isn't what you think it should be or what others want it to be, it about what you want. You need to learn to write with what you feel before you ever worry about what others will think about it.  Knowing this, I realized that writing, whether it's real or fictional, is a very personal thing. Sometimes it's a good thing just to write for yourself, even if nobody else will see it (journal, diaries?)
