Even if you are not a good dancer, or singer, or artist, you can be. They say "a picture paints a thousand words" but rather, it is our calling as writers to use a thousand words to paint a picture. You can be whoever you want to be, create whoever you want to create. Write yourselves into the story. Bits and pieces of yourself and your experiences. That's the beauty of fiction. It's a lie that tells the truth, over and over again.
