It is so great to be writing again. I haven't been able to write in such a long time, and it's always better when sharing the experience. I often look back and think of how I used to write, and realize what a long way I've come.
I've been writing since my sister's Freshman year (I often judge time based off of my sister, instead of years). I guess that would be '94, right? Summer of '94, to be exact. Ever since then, I hadn't gone a long period of time without writing, until I went off to college. From there, it was off and on, and now that I'm out of school again, it seems like no one can stop me. It feels so good.
Anyway, I just wanted to be able to look back and say, "Wow, I've been writing for over half of my life. Twelve years, out of twenty-two. It boggles my mind. While I don't see myself as being the next great author in this world, I do know that some day, people will know my name. It seems like it's destiny, at this point, and I never give up, so watch out. I'll just keep improving. There's no stopping me, now.
And, in the end, I owe it all to
SLWatson. Thanks, Steff. You've made such a huge impact on my life.
