Silence is deadly.
Silence causes irrational thoughts, actions, and feelings. With silence too much is left to the imagination.
I.
WILL.
NOT.
BE.
SILENT.
ANY.
LONGER.
I tried to blend in with the shadows, but that just caused more despair.
I write.
Yes I write a lot.
I write what others want to hear, and what they don't want to hear but need to.
My topics are wild and daring. They're safe and boxed off.
I strive to reach an audience that needs help, who need someone to rely on.
I do this because I wish I had someone to talk to me about what i'm feeling without making me feel vulnerable and two inches tall.
I want my readers to know that they can contact me. because they can
I write because i'm good at it.
I write to help others.
I write because it's my passion.
But most importantly, I write because I can't dream of doing anything else.
