To be a writer is something that we must learn to handle. You must learn how to take yourself out of one world and insert yourself into another. To step into someone else's shoes. To learn how to criticize yourself. Being a writer is no walk in the park. Neither is being a reader. I stepped into this world about 7 years ago. I began reading all sorts of things. It was almost an obsession. It's hard to detach yourself from the world you surround yourself in. To leave one world for another. I began using reading as a coping method. I began writing to let out some of my wishes and wants. We all have our own reasons for reading or writing. Just like a star twinkling in the night sky, each is different, each unique. To be in this community is to always have a friend. We're all here enjoying the same things.
