Excerpt
I didn't know I had all of these things that I put down on paper in me until I started writing. Honestly I still don't really get it when I heard the phrase, "Writing as if your life depended on it," but I did realize that through my writing I learned a little more about myself and I'm pretty sure my life depends on that. I realized my thoughts and opinions on things were much more personal to me and that I really do have a something to say on issues I didn't think I had anything to say about. So I guess to me writing means I catch up on more of what I didn't know I knew about myself.
