Why is a raven like a writing desk?
This was a frequent question in the newest Wonderland movie, but is there actually an answer to this riddle?

Thank you for your responses! I've always wanted to know the answer to this.

Why Do You Write?I'm interested in the answers I might hear to this question. I write because sometimes something wells up inside of me, wanting out, wanting a voice, wanting acknowledgement, and writing is one of the ways I've found to let it out.
