My blog is finally created.  It feels like I’m selling out a bit but I guess it happens eventually.  I pictured myself being a great writing success at 20 (the age I’m currently at) with old fashioned methods.  I would would sit at my typewriter and send my stories by mail and get them published in paper magazines, but alas, I was born in the wrong decade.  For now, I am limited to a computer but that doesn’t bother me.  I wanted to create this blog to use as a creative outlet, but mostly I needed the attention and validation (that’s a half-joke.  Get used to my self-deprecating humor), and I thought it would be helpful to share my personal struggles with anxiety and depression.  Plus, I need to get in the habit of writing regularly.  I’m hoping, like most people willing to put their art out in the open, is recognition.  I’m not a flashy person and I rarely talk to people let alone have the courage to self-promote.  For now, I’m going to let my writing do the talking.
