I’m glad to hear that! I’ve been writing for years. I think my interest in writing really bloomed more than ever around 3rd or 4th grade, but my passion increased the most in early middle school and forward. I’ve been writing poetry for several years and have composed several journals and binders full, some I may write just from the top of my head. I always had an interest in sociology and psychology alongside true crime and the methods behind spree killers and serial killers and the various differences between the two. My writing has been heavily impacted by role models and musicians but also inspired by music, articles, novels, graphic novels, books, biographies, about criminals and such. I have been heavily influenced by backstories and things I can personally relate to. My biggest writing inspiration came from Stephen King, and my fathers large collection. (Owning all but a few books by him, both hardback and softback). I put my heart into my writing, some does not follow the poetry format, in fact a lot of it is jumbled and springs from certain years and then my present writing. There’s no particular order or rules I follow when putting my writing together, so it may not look it’s best. Some of it just journals my thoughts or puts together how I feel in a poetic way (but not following any format, example being a sonnet) instead, it’s my own little way of putting things together. It’s not all poetry, it has a lot of heavy thoughts and simple writing in it. It has some triggering or deep things inside, actually some pulled from diaries or old notebooks. A lot comes from 2015 all the way to 2017. And others are from recent. You’ll have to take a look when you get the chance!
