“Their lack of finish is what makes them so compelling.” Why does he blog? This is exactly why in my eyes. He loves to write but without the time or the need to read, read, and proofread a piece he has the challenge of putting together a good piece without the crutches. It is a challenge. Just like the dare devil going for the next great stunt or athlete going for a record. He states in his article that the deadlines for his blogs were in the now. This is just another challenge that he has to overcome as he writes his posts. Most everyone faces deadlines as they write a paper or novel but when the topic of what you are writing about is changing as you write, the challenge increases. Andrew Sullivan is an adrenaline junky and just doesn’t put his life on the line. He puts himself out there for the world to see so that the world can see how good of a writer he is. He reaches out to everyone in order to please them as his ultimate editors. When he does reach a conflict with one of his editors per say, it provides another opportunity for him to express himself. Blogs are in real time and show different events in time. One person may dislike his blog but with the living and changing writing that is the blog he has the chance for discussion. Why blog? Blog because it is a challenge everyday for every word over any topic. It expresses ideas and gives every writer new or wise a challenge every time he or she posts.
