I'm an 20 year old who's had a tough life. One of the many things that keeps me together is writing, because, you can write anything you want, you can imagine fantasies and escape your harsh reality, or you can write about your harsh reality. 

For me though, I choose the harsh reality even though most authors don't. Because from my fair share of it reality has goods and bads and if we are always focusing on the fantasy and never reality we loose whats good about reality. Its no comparison really, read either.

But if you read one of my works, beware there isn't a prince at the end that saves and marries the damsel in distress. Books aren't always happy endings, nor is life. 

Good luck loves, 

Ash
