The Author

I picked up a pen and then -- an idea just came to me.

I started writing. Before I knew it

I had a whole book that people loved.

Writing is a very liberating thing.

I feel at peace as I'm writing; I can just relax, and let the ideas flow.

I always make sure I'm inspired, so my ideas can be seen and known.

I have loved writing ever since I was a little girl.

The ideas I get are wonderful; they help me make my stories better.

Before I know it I have about two chapters done.

Being The Author is a great feeling.

I get to decide how my character will act, what they do, and how they feel.

Being in charge of a project, such as a book, is the best feeling I could ever have.

I can turn to my story and feel free.

When I need a break from anything that I'm dealing with at the moment -- my story my "go-to" place.

I can be in my own little world all over again -- it's those moments that I love.

Life can be hard at times.

Yet being The Author I can escape this world so I can live into my own world that I created.

I can live there for as long as I want to.

I can't wait to start my other story that just came to me.

Being The Author is just the place I feel at home and I don't ever want to leave.

My home is where my story is; my story might have just begun.

Yet it will always be the way I want it to be.

Whatever is to come I know I can face it -- as long as I have my story and my pen.

I will never give up writing -- it is my passion and my great escape.

Now I'm off to go write and be The Author I was meant to be.
