I love this, David! I really like the idea of the 3 types of writing and that we need all three. I totally agree that different forms of writing are needed for different stages and phases of the creative journey. I still use all 3 but it's taken me a while to figure out what I really want to say and focus on. Through exploratory writing and trying different things targeted for different audiences, I've been able to narrow my focus enough to start moving into the 3rd type of writing and creating and niche down to a topic that resonates and aligns with me deeply and in a more embodied way. It takes a while to get there but it's all part of the growing pains of becoming more of myself through the creative process. Thanks for sharing this model. It speaks to my experience:)
