Hello, I'm a sixteen year old girl from California (:
I began writing when I was about eleven years old. At first, I tried to write long stories, "books" is what I would call them, but I discarded those disastrous things years ago and began writing short stories and poems.
I mainly write when my depression gets too hard to handle and times when I feel suicidal. I don't usually show these to people which is why I would like to stay somewhat anonymous.
As you can see, I've only recently joined this site and I've posted a few of my previous works. I don't really know how to do anything fancy, such as designing and posting covers for my writing, but I assume I will get there eventually.
So far, one hundred percent of my writing on here is based on things I have really encountered or felt in my life. That may change in the future, but for now, this remains true.
I'm not looking for pity because of the depression, I honestly just want to know what people think of my writing ability (or lack of writing ability) because, as I said before, it is unusual for me to publicize it.
I would be happy if my writing inspired or helped anyone in any way. Also, I hope it makes others who feel as I do feel that they are not alone in life and the way they feel.
I would be happy to listen to and try to help anyone who is in a similar situation. Do not be afraid to message me.
I think that's all I have to say. Thank you for reading this entire thing if you did. (:
