My grandfather would tell me to write, be a writer, write it down, and I spent years ignoring it.
Only when I was faced with an illness that I could not ignore did I completely understand that writing could be a source of healing.
Your story doesn’t have to be 100 percent perfect….as long as you write with feeling.
I love reading books based on a slice of life.
Also, when you’ve spent time bed ridden.. the idea of a longer life becomes interesting. Lol
I love writing because it is the only space where one’s inner thoughts and personality can be broken down into pages. Even if you’re writing fiction ones heart and or thoughts are displayed at some point on pages. Some say being consumed by stories is a form of escapism but I believe it’s a form of unlocking one’s heart, creativity, trauma, life, and dreams.
