CHECK OUT MY FINISHED LIST!
~
I think I have started to get a grasp of who I am.
I have a boyfriend now, in a couple of days is our 7 months and I haven't read anything on here since we got together.
Getting in a relationship made me realize how much I relied on books and fiction to cradle me. These stories are like an escape into a world that I wish was my own. I noticed how sad I was and how pathetic my life was. I think taking a break from these incredible stories helped me to find myself. I have a long way to go, but I've changed.
I just got back into reading (it's like a lifeboat) and I'm back on here trying to keep myself grounded so I do not float back into this helpless, pitiful mindset.
I'm a writer and I always will be, now making those stories is the hard part. I can get started and get halfway through a book but yet quit. And I go back to read it and realize how bad my writing is. But then again, we are our biggest bullies.
So that's what I'm working on for now because I love writing just as much as I love reading. And my goal is to create something that people can come to love, not something that makes people gravitate towards because it builds a sense of relief. But a story that can inspire people to fix themselves, to love themselves, and to aspire them to be that person they want to be.

Now strangers, if you actually read this, I hope that it can show a bit of who I want to be. I want to be that rock for people. Good authors know how to draw people into their stories without any drawings, only words. They know how to make people feel and understand things, and I want to be that author. I want to be someone who leaves that tiny footprint on someone's path to success.

(P.S. I'm still a long way to becoming a person that I can genuinely be proud to be. But by writing all of this it is kind of my way of letting the world know that I will be someone, even if no one ever sees this.)
