Reading is great but writing is even greater. 
It helps me broaden my mind and try and make some sense out of that mess that's in my head. 
I love creating stories from an object that I see or a thought. It can even start with a person I've seen in the street. 
Writing is all about being creative and most importantly imaginative. 

I wish I were J.K. Rowling but we can't all have so great a soul.
