There are so many outlets for writing these days. Does how you write determine where you write, where you publish?
With blogs, such as my own, you can publish nearly anything anytime you want. But what if you aren't on a computer, don't use one, don't want to use one, what then?
Journals are a good choice. Of course, you can do one of those online as well. You can carry a notebook, notepads, note cards, and write stuff by hand.
Cell phones and/or their apps can be another destination for your works, your ideas, your thoughts. You can also publish on certain apps right from your cell phone.
Publications such as journals and zines accept submissions in a variety of styles and types of writing. Newspapers or magazines may accept articles on spec or hire you as a reporter or writer.
Other forms include writing ad copy, business writing, speech writing, or maybe writing correspondence for a politician or someone else.
The opportunities exist for you to find a home for your works! Start at your favorite online source to search for what interests you or visit your local library (or book store) and pick up a reference book writing and/or submitting. Good luck!
