Why?


Why I write?

I write to live.

To see the world clearly in a brilliant light my words dare to express.

To set free my imagination, that child inside that is always clamoring to be set free.

To adventure, to do things I never dreamed in this world possible, that happen through words.

I write to untangle the messy contorted thread of my ever changing thoughts, thoughts that stumble and fall, skip and dance through my mind and heart.
