Discussion on: Why I write and why you should too (specially if you are a minority.).

I'm glad you found your motivation to write! :) I think if anyone's posts, stories, and articles can contribute to someone finding their joy or passion in coding, it's a good enough reason to start writing.

Most people would categorize me as a "cis white male", but I still find it hard to identify with anyone, so I don't really know if posts by someone by whom I feel represented would help me in one way or another - simply because I've never encountered such a situation. But if you can make such a difference for someone, it's an even better reason to write!

So go get those bytes out! Preferrably in unicode, if your article outlet permits. ;)

Thank you Peter for your comment :)
I hope someday you find a community where you can feel represented, it is a nice feeling when you feel you belong. And again, while my main focus is to inspire people like me, my bigger goal is to inspire anyone that needs inspiration!
