Where do I start? 

I used to love to write. As a child, I never kept a diary. I thought writing your feelings to a book was pointless. I tried once. 

'Dear Diary, 

          You are a piece of paper. What do you care about my feelings?'

Two sentences. Waste of a book. 

I did enjoy writing though, honestly. In eighth grade, my class was to write a short story about learning a lesson, or something. I don't remember the topic, but I do remember sitting at the computer for hours. I pulled out all the stops: favorite names as characters, a hint of violence, different points of views (just like the real authors would do). For the life of me, I cannot tell you what the story was about, but I can tell you that I received an A. During high school, I attempted to write a full length story many times without success. I went to college for Biology and slowly gave up on my dreams of writing the next hit thriller. 

Ten years after my first writing experience, I finally feel that I have something to write about. A lot of things have happened in the passed decade that have changed me. By no means am I saying that my story is a thriller, or anything that I will write could be anything close. But it will be real, and it will be raw. A friend once told me that I am brutally honest. I like to think of that character trait as a gift. 

I want to start out my blog by doing a 30 writing challenge to get my feet wet. It will probably be very silly and very cheesy, but I hope you enjoy! And, if anyone who stumbles upon this blog has any suggestions about what to write, please let me know!

Thank you for stopping by :)
