I guess writing in Spanish is to put in a paper or on the screen the relation I have create with my surrounding through languages during my whole life. Maybe the best image I can choose is putting together a puzzle made of things you have felt, experienced, thought: It requires an effort but you feel at home with the task.
For explaining what writing in English is like for me, I would like to continue with the image of my motocycle. Since It works without clutch, writing in english is like riding a motocycle with clutch: the process doesn't change a lot, you just have to press one more button to do it... and despite the clutch, you love it.
Writing in French is like putting together your first computer and its table -Now I remember how long It took to me and my oldman finishing that task. I choose this image because these are demanding things but still you are eager to have the result and you enjoy making the effort: you keep trying one way and another and so on until you get the final product.
