The Best Reason to Blog in 2022

Welcome to the Running Towards Words blog by Kyla Denanyoh

My name is Kyla and I am a writer. I've spent years running away from blogging, but I'm giving myself permission to do what I enjoy: WRITE.

Who is Kyla Denanyoh?

I am an Ohioan, writer, podcaster, content curator, video editor, and lawyer.

When I go to bed, I lie there for a few minutes and daydream about the titles of blogs or novels. I write those down with a few examples to fill out the title and think of a new blog.

Or I am so tired that I immediately fall asleep and dream about vivid storylines and plots, wake up and write everything down in a frenzy, then go back to sleep before I can judge myself for writing stories while half awake.

And in the morning, I always check my phone for confirmation of a dream that I was writing down a story, and there is always a little note with poor spelling and grammar that reminds me of the cool story I saw while sleeping.

Why the name Running Towards Words?

I have been talking myself OUT of creating a blog for years.

Usually, I talk myself out of a blog in order to create something else, like a podcast or YouTube channel. Or I talk myself out of the blog because it will be too much work. But I've recently learned that EVERYTHING is work, so why not work on something for myself? Something that I'll enjoy immensely because I love writing.

And I should run towards words, not run from words so I created the Running Towards Words by Kyla Denanyoh.

You can expect a new blog every Monday. I am stubbornly consistent too, so get ready to enjoy these blogs every week, regardless of federal or national holidays or my birthday! A new blog will be here.

Why Create a Blog NOW?

I am ready to share my words and writing style with the world. Everything I see online feels like a sign that it's time to start writing, so I am going to start writing. And I have written a few words. And you are reading them. Hey! 👋🏽

What's the Best thing about Blogging?

This blog was created for me to embrace my talents and interests. What creative or artistic interest are you running from because of [insert excuse here]. Why don't you switch things up and run towards your interests? I will cheer you along the whole time.
