About me
Carmen Vornicu
Writing, this essence of thought that is laid out on paper, is an aspiration towards something I cannot grasp.
This is perhaps where the need to keep my thoughts agile comes from. I let them run around the fields, take them out into the air and sun.
When my thoughts go crazy, I leave them in the rain, and forget them there, until they beg me to come inside, to warm up.
There are moments in life that hurt, then I write to reach the familiar breath again, so that my soul will no longer be like a balloon, so that it will no longer float adrift, so that it will come back to me.
- So that I can sing and dance again, I write.
- So that I can laugh and be happy again, I write.
- So that the thousand wandering thoughts may return home, I write.
- So that patience may flood me with peace and serenity, I write.
- So that kindness may remind the being how full of light it is, I write.
The letter takes my hand, caresses my head, asks about my health, talks to me like a best friend, and shows me that it cares.
Why After Dictation?
I’m here to learn to write well.
I have to write a lot before I can write well. I believe that to write an inspired word , there must be at least 1000 words read. The economist in me quickly calculates that I have somewhere around 300 words read, for every one word written.
And then where can I write better?
In such gaps, I have to write After Dictation , hoping that from somewhere, somehow, something is still being „dictated” to me. By writing like this and reading fervently , maybe one day I will actually manage to write well .

If you’ve read this far and still don’t show signs of nervousness, you’re one of those people who read all the nonsense in the world when you have nothing better to read.
If you’ve made it this far but feel a nervous flutter in your stomach, it means that
You are one of the selective ones, but you forgot to go out on time.
If you haven’t made it this far, you have no idea what I’m writing now, I’m still telling you to stay.
Writing inspires and exhales me, it inspires my mind so that everything that is sent to it, after dictation, can be exhaled on paper.
