When I write something public I write using bigger words and I spell check like crazy, because I want people to read my work and be impressed with my ideas and me.
secrets. personally, i LOVE a good secret. i share most anything with my best friend. but for some people, there are certain things that they cannot share with anyone.
PS- notice the lack of capital letters and formal sentences in this post? yeah...my own rules.
Now Bridget Jones's Diary was written to be read by lots of people so it is public.
I feel like when you write in something private you are more likely to truly share your feelings. If you're writing on something that's public, like this blog, I think it is a little harder to open up and share.

Private writing, on the other hand, would be writing that is solely for your own purposes. This differs from personal writing in that is not meant for anyone to read other than yourself; personal writing can be public writing.
This blog is personal and public. While the general public will view it, it is largely my opinion.
I'd like to ask a new question which is related: What do you picture when you think of a "writer"?
Is it this?
This?
Or this?
