I suppose my perspective is somewhat similar, only different.
I have always loved writing; I preferred "writing stories" to drawing, even as a pre-teen. But I never really likes writing in school, I just liked writing for my own benefit.
For the same reason, I never did well as a technical writer (even though it was my profession) and I never did well writing for magazines, because I always felt bound by a bunch of constraints.
Blogging — which I discovered around maybe 1998 or 1999 — opened a gateway to a form of writing I truly enjoy. Hive is merely the newest iteration of that.
