Just Write

We read and write personal essays for the same reasons. — Barbara Abercrombie

“We read personal essays to understand our lives, to find humor, to discover a new way of looking at the world. We write them for the same reasons. the short personal essay (about 500 to 1200 words) is your journey through a specific experience, whether commonplace or one of life’s milestones, and ranges from the personal to something more universal, something your readers can connect with.” — Barbara Abercrombie,  “On Writing Personal Essays,” The Writer, January 2003.
