i think the reason i'm so good at writing is the fact that i have a troubled mind.
most every great writer had either a tragic backstory or some sort of mental illness.
i guess i got lucky with both!
i've always been troubled and i've been writing for as long as i can remember and then once i started having mental issues the writing really took a turn and it was as if i couldn't put the pen down.
i spend a good amount of my time writing.
i'd do it all day if i could.
it's my escape.
my safe haven.
a world where i couldn't write is a world that i don't really want to live in.
it's nice to get all of my thoughts organized out on paper or on a screen.
i hope my writing will have some sort of impact on people.
the things i write about i like to think are relatable.
although a lot of it is about love and loss and if you haven't been in love it might be hard to relate to.
i just hope it helps someone out there.
there are so many thoughts that go through my mind on a daily basis i feel as if i'm suffocating in my head.
writing down the thoughts as soon as i think them helps me feel a little less trapped within the confines of my head.
i ramble a lot and everyone knows it.
it helps to write it all down.
is it bad for me to hope that i never heal from the things that have hurt me because i'm worried that i won't be able to write without the pain?
